He also shared to Board of his upcoming speaking engagement with Philippine Institute of Chemical Engineers Chapter Luzon.
  2. Irvin discussed the Proposed Policy on Establishing a Philippine Wikimedia Community Branch (2021) based on the discussions of non-Bicol based members and with the President.
