Traveling Changes Perspective | with Jenica Dizon Ep. 22
Jenica Dizon currently serves as the Country Director of Waves For Water Philippines, a humanitarian aid organization focused on providing clean water access to underserved communities. Prior to this, she has worked in tourism, corporate sustainability, and environmental policy.
She graduated with a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts, majoring in Information Design, and double minoring in Management and Development Management from Ateneo de Manila University, while at the same time receiving the Loyola Schools Award for Leadership and Service as Most Outstanding Individual.
In 2016, she was conferred the Gawad ng Kaunlaran medal by the Armed Forces of the Philippines—the second-highest distinction presented to civilians and government officials for her involvement in community-building. In 2019, she obtained her Master’s in Water and Sanitation for Development as a Marshal Papworth Foundation scholar in the United Kingdom.
Outside work, she is a PADI-certified rescue diver and also a certified Vinyasa yoga teacher. In this episode, we talk about her advocacy, how travel changes how we perceive things, and her realization that chasing the finite doesn't really satisfy the soul.
