Magiting. Makabayan. Malaya.

Taglay natin ang kapangyarihan na magtataguyod ng kalayaan at pagbubuklod. Ang ating lakas ay nakasalalay sa pagmamahal at malasakit sa bayan. Ipagdiwang ang di-mabilang na sakripisyo na nagbigay saysay sa ating kalayaan.

Nakikiisa ang Positive Youth Development Network sa pagdiriwang ng ika-39 na anibersaryo ng EDSA People Power Revolution.

PYDN's 2023 Annual Report is now available on the PYDN website!

This report highlights the Hall of Famers of the Philippine Sangguniang Kabataan Awards—a testament to the inspiring power of young people's impact in governance.

Since 2018, PSKA has recognized outstanding SKs that set new standards in public service. In the 4th PSKA, marking the final term of the previous batch of SKs, seven remarkable councils were inducted into the prestigious PSKA Hall of Fame: SK Balabag, SK Cabanatian, SK Calao West, SK Payatas, SK Villagonzaga, SK Tisa, and SK San Isidro.

The annual report also showcases the various programs we implemented together with you. These include the Kaibigan chat line, Young Heroes Initiative, Kabataang Resilient, and the iconic return of Ideas Positive for its 11th run.

In her message, Ate Jen emphasized the resilience and dedication that drive the network’s mission. From Luzon to Visayas to Mindanao, the annual report shares inspiring stories of young leaders shaping a future built on courage, creativity, and compassion.

Your unwavering commitment shows that, with the right opportunities, young people can be at the forefront of nation building.
