Active Citizenship

Angat Kabataan Pilipinas - Barangay Bagong Silangan (AKPBBS) is a premier community-based youth organization steadfastly dedicated to the holistic development and empowerment of the youth sector in Bagong Silangan, Quezon City. Established as a beacon of hope and a platform for civic action, AKPBBS operates on the fundamental belief that young individuals are not merely future leaders, but the primary drivers of immediate environmental restoration and social equity today. Our organization serves as a dynamic hub for capacity-building, focusing on four critical pillars: inclusive education, professional skills training, sustainable livelihood, and proactive disaster preparedness. By bridging the gap between potential and opportunity, we provide our members with the necessary tools to navigate modern challenges while fostering a deep sense of social responsibility. Through grassroots initiatives such as the ""OSY FAIRyahan"" caravan and various community-led advocacies, we demonstrate a consistent track record of transforming youth-led passion into tangible community results, particularly for the most vulnerable sectors. At AKPBBS, we champion a culture of resilience and innovation. We empower our members to take ownership of local issues—ranging from climate justice to economic stability—ensuring that every youth leader is equipped to design and execute sustainable solutions. Our governance is rooted in transparency, inclusivity, and the pursuit of a just society where every young person has a voice in shaping public policy. Joining AKPBBS transcends typical volunteerism; it is a commitment to a movement where leadership is nurtured, and potential is realized. Here, you are not just a member—you are a driver of change, a catalyst for progress, and a fundamental architect of a better, more resilient future for all. Objectives: a. Empower youth leadership b.
