🇵🇭 Sugod, Kabataang Pilipino! | Our Planet, Our Future: Asia-Pacific Youth Survey

Calling all SKC leaders and youth advocates! As we continue to push for climate justice and sustainable development, we have a direct line to the United Nations. This survey is designed to gather structured youth inputs from across the Asia-Pacific to inform the 9th Session of the Committee on Environment and Development (CED9) at UN ESCAP.

Your voice will help draft the Regional Youth Synthesis Report, ensuring that the Filipino youth perspective is at the heart of the Ministerial discussions.

🔍 How your input makes an impact:
- Validates our regional priorities across 6 major environmental themes.

- Exposes the gaps between policy promises and our current climate reality.

- Features youth-led solutions (submit your case studies!).

- Strengthens our collective demand for meaningful youth inclusion in governance.

Exclusive Perks for Respondents:
By completing the survey, you’ll gain access to:
- Youth Advocacy Resources: Sample materials to guide your local planning.
- Digital Support Kit: Custom digital “stickers” to showcase your environmental advocacy.
- Transparency: You will receive the final synthesis report and updates on the official Youth Statement.

⏰ The Countdown is On!
Deadline: Sunday, 22 March 2026 | 11:59 PM (GMT+7)

Partners: Spearheaded by YOUNGO, CYMG , GYBN Thailand, YUSEA, and YECAP, with coordination from United Nations ESCAP.

With a new AI regulation law passed in Vietnam and the recent crackdowns on AI companies like Anthropic, it is clear: AI is shaping economies, elections, and labor markets.

And political actors are shaping AI in return.

The question is: will future leaders understand how to govern it — or just react to it?

PMT is where political management meets AI governance. Apply now.

📅 Application deadline: 15 March 2026 (11:59 PM Manila time)

𝑪𝑶𝑹𝑹𝑼𝑷𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵 𝑺𝑻𝑬𝑨𝑳𝑺 𝑶𝑼𝑹 𝑭𝑼𝑻𝑼𝑹𝑬.
THE YOUTH WILL NOT STAY SILENT! ✊🏼

Today, September 21, thousands of Filipinos are taking to the streets in Manila and Quezon City to demand transparency, accountability, and justice in government. Investigations reveal that over ₱545 billion allocated for flood control and infrastructure projects since 2022 may have been misappropriated, with reports of “ghost” and substandard projects putting lives at risk.

Every peso stolen is a peso taken from our schools, hospitals, and communities. Every act of corruption is a violent betrayal of the people’s trust.

The youth are awake, angry, and rising. We demand justice, transparency, and accountability. Panagutin ang mga kurap! This means holding them legally, politically, and morally responsible. The corrupt cannot hide any longer. Their time is up. We will not accept empty promises or token investigations.

𝑷𝑨𝑵𝑨𝑮𝑼𝑻𝑰𝑵 𝑨𝑵𝑮 𝑴𝑮𝑨 𝑲𝑼𝑹𝑨𝑷! ✊🏼

Corruption is not just a crime—it is a betrayal of the people. It steals our future, denies our right to education, healthcare, and a dignified life, and abuses the power entrusted to public officials. Today, we rise to demand justice. We demand the return of every stolen peso, the dismantling of corrupt networks, and the restoration of integrity in our institutions.

No compromise. No silence. No turning back. Corruption ends now!

Ang aktibismo ay hindi terorismo! Manatiling gising at aktibo para sa bayan! ✊🏻🇵🇭 Stand with us, raise your voice, and take action. Together, we will demand a government that truly serves the people!

MAKIALAM! MAKIISA! MAKIBAHAGI! Sama-sama nating palakasin ang Sigaw ng Kabataan!
