Robredo has been selected of late as a fellow by Harvard Kennedy School’s Center for Public Leadership.

Recently, she was conferred an honorary degree by Ateneo De Manila University.

“Yung pinaka-narrative nila sa akin na bobo ako ‘di ba? Bobo ako, lutang, Madumb… ‘Yun yung sabi nila. Pero sabi ko nga, talaga ang Diyos, yung Diyos talaga marunong. Kasi… yung mga dumarating sa akin, parang hindi ko naman sino-solicit,” she dished out this line against her critics in a video circulating in social media.
