MORE THAN 600 STUDENT LEADERS GATHER FOR BAGUIO STUDENTS DAY 2026 🚀

A huge success marked the Baguio Students Day (BSD) 2026: Gear Up 2.0 at the University of the Philippines Baguio on September 13, 2026. The event was attended by more than 600 student leaders representing 22 secondary and tertiary schools across Baguio City and La Trinidad, Benguet.

Organized by the Cordilleran Youth Center (C*C) in partnership with the City Government of Baguio, SIGLAT Youth Innovation Hub, and other youth and student organizations in Metro Baguio, the 13th edition of Baguio Students Day featured the second installment of "Gear Up!", offering a packed schedule of plenary discussions and skills training sessions.

"Gear Up 2.0 was designed to better equip our student leaders with practical skills, including public speaking, organizational management, financial literacy, advocacy, and policy reform, among others," said Miel Taggaoa of the Cordilleran Youth Center, co-head of BSD 2026. Esteemed speakers for each workshop included experts in their respective fields.

Taggaoa warmly shared that the energy from the participants showed "a strong drive among Baguio youth to translate leadership into tangible action within their campuses and communities."

BSD 2026 was framed around the continuing campaign "Students Deserve Better, Filipinos Deserve Better," launched last BSD 2025. Led by the National Union of Students of the Philippines-Cordillera (NUSP-Cordillera), this year's event highlighted the "2026 Pathway to Better," which outlines the immediate collective demands of students across Metro Baguio.

NUSP-Cordillera Spokesperson Eugene Enciso elaborated that the SDB 2026 Pathway was a product of a series of consultations among student councils and youth organizations in Metro Baguio. According to Enciso, key press points of the campaign include: safe and inclusive spaces in schools; accessible funding for student organizations and institutions; transparency in school construction, facilities, and school development plans; and the streamlining of processes for student activities.

The BSD 2026 gathering also served as the official launch of the search for the Safe and Sound Baguio Ambassadors. It is an open call for Baguio youth aged 15–30 from September to October 2026. Applicants and the 10 selected cohorts will be trained and supported to lead youth-driven campaigns and activities aimed at contributing to safer, more inclusive urban environments. # # #
