The Cognayan Project was launched in September last year and we are now looking for partners in the Arts and Sciences holding juried competitions this year and next.

Cognayan is looking for participants from partner organizations holding juried competitions in the arts and sciences. Participants must be 18 years old and up and from Tagalog-speaking regions.

The Cognayan Project study welcomes participants from Tagalog speaking regions from Metro Manila to Southernn and Central Luzon.

Cognayan Project participants can expect to receive insights into their personalities and compensation for attending in-person sessions.

We’ve partnered with Hijos Tours by Card MRI as one of the organizations holding a juried competition - a Balagtasan or a Filipino form of debate done in verse. The first balagtasan was performed on April 6, 1924 with three sets of poets presenting a scripted defense.
