What is Kapwa?

In 1975, Virgilio Enriquez introduced the concept of kapwa (shared ​identity or togetherness). A fundamental idea in Filipino Psychology and a ​cornerstone of the Filipino Values. Kapwa PH seeks to foster free peer support ​conversation among Filipinos through the principle of pakikipagkapwa or treating ​other person as kapwa. To bring this concept to life, we match individuals with the ​same struggles in live-moderated and small kapwa group conversations. These ​conversations provides a safe space for our users to vent and help others feel heard. ​Through these shared experiences, Kapwa PH nurtures a sense of community, ​empowering individuals to find strength and solutions together.
