Inclusion. Empowerment. Every Young Voice Matters! ♿️✨

Kabataan, let’s champion a future where every young person—regardless of ability—has the opportunity to participate, lead, and make a difference. Building inclusive communities starts with breaking barriers and creating spaces where everyone can contribute meaningfully.

Join us for the webinar “Inclusive Youth Leadership: Empowering Young Leaders to Champion Disability Inclusion” on Thursday, August 6, 2026, from 1:00–4:00 PM via Zoom and Facebook Live.

This learning session aims to equip SK officials, SK Pederasyon, LYDC members, LYDOs and staff, youth organizations, student leaders, volunteers, and young people with the knowledge and practical strategies to advance disability inclusion in youth programs, governance, and community development. Together, let’s promote accessibility, equity, meaningful participation, and respect for the rights and dignity of young persons with disabilities.

Let’s lead inclusively. Let’s break barriers. Let’s leave no young person behind.

READ | In reference with the SK Advisory 2026-P008. The National Youth Commission, through the SK Web Portal, is opening the 2027 Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) System for the implementation of the Local Youth Development Plan (LYDP), Comprehensive Barangay Youth Development Plan (CBYDP), and Annual Barangay Youth Investment Program (ABYIP).

As part of the preparation for the end-of-term submission and assessment of the current Sangguniang Kabataan administration, all SK-funded Programs, Projects, and Activities (PPAs) and General Administrative Programs (GAPs) implemented during 2024 (PPAs Only), 2025 (PPAs Only), and 2026 (PPAs and GAPs) must be encoded in the SK Web Portal, including those that were not previously submitted or were submitted late.

This serves as the official consolidation of accomplishments and will help ensure that every eligible activity undertaken during the current SK term is properly documented and reflected in the end-of-term monitoring and evaluation.

In addition, the 2027 M&E is now open for the encoding of PPAs and GAPs implemented from January 2026 onwards, allowing SK officials to record their accomplishments in real time until the completion of their term.

🎉 31 YEARS OF EMPOWERING EVERY FILIPINO YOUTH 🤙🏼🇵🇭

For 31 years, the National Youth Commission has stood for the rights, welfare, aspirations, and meaningful participation of the Filipino youth.

This anniversary is more than a celebration of our journey. It is a reminder of the responsibility we carry as public servants to listen with humility, to serve with compassion, and to remain faithful to the needs and hopes of the young people we represent.

Under the banner of the 13th Commission, we reaffirm that inclusivity is not just about representation. It is about ensuring that every young Filipino is seen, heard, respected, and empowered, regardless of gender, faith, background, status, ability, identity, belief, or place of origin.

In a time when our nation continues to face many challenges, we are reminded that the youth must always have a meaningful place in shaping solutions, strengthening communities, and building a more peaceful, just, and united Philippines.

The Filipino youth are not only the future of our nation. They are already part of its conscience, courage, creativity, and hope.

As we mark NYC’s 31st Anniversary, we renew our commitment to serve for and with the Filipino youth, and to continue building a government that listens, includes, and empowers every young Filipino to lead, participate, and contribute to nation-building. 💙
