With change comes new beginnings. As our name changed, we thought it would be best to follow suit and also change the name of our growing podcast. Muni-muni translates to pondering and/or reflecting in Tagalog. This is exactly what we want to promote on our platform. We are here to make individuals feel safe, included and comforted. There continues to be barriers when talking about specific topics, especially in Filipino culture. We welcome these conversations as we want a safe space for everyone. We firmly believe that vulnerable and open discussions nurture a more inviting environment.
The Culture
As cultural group, it is our duty to share our Filipino pride through dance, food, art, language and pop culture. We aim to provide opportunities for the TMU Fil-Can community to reconnect with their roots. Below are a few events FilMet has hosted and implemented to celebrate the Filipino culture.
