We had the opportunity to have a casual talk with Mr. TJ Bartolome from Angat Taytay to talk about the role of youth in shaping their communities. During our conversation, he emphasized that being a young person today isn’t just about learning or following trends — it’s about taking action, being informed, and using our voices to create meaningful change.
According to TJ, every decision we make, no matter how small, contributes to the bigger picture of nation-building.
This is exactly what our Youth Decide campaign is all about. We believe na ang bawat kabataan deserves to be heard, to be part of the conversation, and to have the power to influence the future. From participating in local initiatives to making informed choices in elections, youth engagement is not optional — it’s essential.
As Mr. Bartolome reminds us, our actions today can shape the communities we’ll live in tomorrow, and the change starts with us. 🗳️💡
Let’s step up, speak out, and decide for the future we want.
Special Thanks to Angat Taytay and Mr. TJ Bartolome for taking the time to share your experiences and perspectives with us. Your dedication to the community and belief in the power of youth participation motivates us to keep pushing for change.
