Limning the Future

The Nayong Pilipino Foundation, in partnership with Ateneo de Manila University, Fine Arts Department, hosted a public consultation titled Umpukan sa Nayon: Limning the Future last August 15, 2020. It was done in two parts—one in the morning, which was an ideation workshop involving children between eight to twelve years old, and the second one was in the afternoon titled “Youth-centered Spaces and Why They Matter.” The afternoon session was a focus group discussion on how youth civic agency can be nurtured. Specialists were invited to discuss what “youth-centered” means, how important it is, and how having these spaces contribute to society. It served as a consultation on how Nayong Pilipino can create platforms for nurturing young people and encouraging youth civic engagement.
