ASEAN+3 Youth Festival

Objectives

The AYF hopes to achieve the following:

(a) Provide a platform for youth leaders to come together and interact with one another, so as to enable the delegates to gain a deeper understanding of each other’s countries and the East Asia region as a whole, as well as to develop a greater appreciation with regards to the diversity and different cultures in East Asia;

(b) Inspire and motivate the delegates to step out and do their bit for the region by delivering the various proposals on different key issues they are required to draft and formulate through discussions during the Youth Forum event;

(c) Enable delegates to forge and cultivate long-lasting friendships and bonds which will pave the way for greater and more co-operations and collaborations in many fields in future; and

(d) Showcase the vibrancy as well as the role of youths in today’s society and spread the message that youths can play a part and have the potential in making a difference to society.

Theme

The theme of the AYF is ExpressO, which means “Expressing Ourselves”.

It is hoped that this theme will be able to encourage and urge youths to “express themselves” throughout the week long festival and throughout their lives. Apart from that, ExpressO, similar to the type of coffee, Espresso, also represents the energy of a revitalizing wake-up call, a call on youths to step out and make a difference to their community and society, through coordinated and concrete action plans.

Target Audience

The AYF aims to engage about 150 youth leaders between the ages of 18 and 25 from the ASEAN+3 countries, with 10 youth representatives from each foreign country and 30 youth representatives from Singapore. Youth Organisations (YOs) from Singapore will be invited to nominate youth leaders for an interview, following which successful applicants will form the 30-strong Singapore delegation.

Singapore youths will also have the chance to partake in the AYF either as Liaison Officers (LOs) who will be tasked to take care of the delegates or as volunteers to assist in the planning and running of activities and programmes.

Search for 7th National Youth Parliament Delegates


NYC Announces Search for 7th National Youth Parliament Delegates

The National Youth Commission announces its search for delegates to the 7th National Youth Parliament (NYP), a gathering of youth leaders aged 15-30 years old representing youth organizations from around the country to discuss issues affecting them.

Anchored on the theme, “Unity in Diversity: An Intercultural and Interfaith Parliament,” the 7th NYP will be staged in Davao City on October 19 to 22, 2008. Elected officers during the Parliament will be trained on Leadership and Advocacy on October 23-25, 2008 in the same venue.

According to NYC Chairperson Richard Alvin Nalupta, the NYP aims to empower the youth in effectively advocating, lobbying and influencing the policy makers in creating a policy environment supportive of the total development of the young people.

Republic Act 8044 mandates the NYC to convene the NYP every two years to serve as a venue for policy discussions to formulate resolutions that will be presented to the NYC, and later on be advocated to policy makers.

Past NYP delegates have become active partners of NYC not only in promoting and implementing youth programs and projects, but also in advocating for youth issues. The 6th NYP batch has even organized themselves into a confederation of youth advocates. Considerable efforts were made in lobbying for the creation of Local Youth Development Councils (LYDCs) and formulation of Local Youth Development Plans (LYDPs), localization of the Magna Carta for Students’ Rights, and promotion of Adolescent Reproductive Health (ARH).

Qualifications of applicants for the 7th NYP are as follows: Filipino citizen, between 15 to 30 years old; residing, studying or working at the place/institution for not less than six months; must be a president/officer of a youth organization (school, community, civic, religious, professional, tribal, etc.); must not be a member of any previous National Youth Parliament; must be an SK Provincial/City Federation President, if representing the SK; and must not have been convicted of any crime.

Delegates will be asked to prepare and submit their organization’s chosen position paper or study in one of the following topics: Youth Values and Good Citizenship, Youth Community Involvement/Engagement, Youth Participation in Governance, Violence in Youth Organizations, Youth Lifestyles, Peace building, and Specific Youth Groups (Juvenile Justice and substance abuse).

“We are expecting some 200 youth leaders to represent their organizations and have their voices heard on vital issues that they face nowadays,” says Commissioner Mohammad Hanny Camid, NYC Commissioner representing Mindanao and 7th NYP National Organizing Committee Head.

NYC will shoulder the food and accommodation of the successful applicants. Application forms are downloadable at the NYC website: www.youth.net.ph, or visit the NYC office for application forms.

Send applications to the NYP Secretariat, National Youth Commission, 4th Floor Bookman Building, Quezon Avenue, Banawe, Quezon City on or before June 30, 2008. For queries, call the NYP Secretariat at (02) 749-9404 or 7812373.
