Award-winning free Android mobile app (iOS coming later 2022) that lets you explore Philippine historical markers by @NHCPofficial. Created by @__seav__.
It’s May 6, 2021 and that means that Panandâ, the award-winning free Android mobile app for exploring historical markers created by the @NHCPOfficial, is now three years old! Hooray! 🎉🎂 (1/4)
Thank you @nytimes for featuring Filipina chemist and food technologist Maria Ylagan Orosa, who fortunately has her own historical marker created by @NHCPOfficial.
(Curiously, the NYT states her birth year as 1893 while the marker says 1892.)

[2/3] Today, on the dictator’s 104th birthday, let’s correct the narrative with this reworked marker that extends the story presented on the “official” marker. This updated text has been adapted from the one put forward by @BaybayinAteneo.

Go ahead and check the Historical Markers Map to explore the rich history of the Philippines as seen through its national historical markers: https://t.co/lUwLXxGDaY
Both Panandâ and the Historical Markers Map are powered by @wikidata and @WikiCommons. We actually use the Historical Markers Map as a staging site for data updates to the mobile app.
We are pleased to finally reveal the permanent logo for #HistoryMonth this August!
The logo together w/ its tagline “Our History Continues” was conceptualized by NHCP History Month Creative Team led by Deputy Executive Director Alvin Alcid & designed by NHCP Artist Jovan Soriano
Today is the 123rd anniversary of the Philippine declaration of independence and to commemorate this holiday, let’s look at an instance of historical revisionism (the proper kind) as seen in @NHCPOfficial’s historical markers concerning the where the 1st anniversary occurred.
36 years after a dictator was ousted, the country is again at a crossroads. May the voters vote for the best candidates this May. #NeverAgain#NeverForget

Bilang isang mag-aaral ng kasaysayan, hindi makikakaila na si Gng. Robredo ang pinaka-kwalipikadong kandidato sa pagka-pangulo sa darating na halalan. #KulayRosasAngBukas#AngatBuhayLahat
Two years ago today, Panandâ won the App for Social Good award during the Android Masters 2019 competition organized by @gdgphilippines.
While this free app is a labor of love, this award provides affirmation that we can do some small good in this world. 🥰
