ONE of ISA’s most anticipated events is the yearly launch of a new work by its founder and chairman emeritus, Jess Estanislao. Beginning last year, ISA decided that instead of putting the book on sale as usual, it would be given as a fundraising gift for a simple campaign to enlist civic support for its governance programs. In 2016, ISA presented 1,000 books to Filipinos living here and abroad who supported the “Good Filipinos” campaign. The organization is proud to count them among its network of responsible citizens pushing for governance to be practiced at all levels of society.
