\"\"<\/p>\n

With the recent development towards unity through the founding of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), peace starts anew not only in the region but also throughout the country. Alongside peacebuilding, the country has been pining for sustainable development and it is now time for the youth to take center.<\/p>\n

PIYC 2019 aims to provide a platform for discussions on national issues that shed light on the role of the youth in peace and development,\u00a0<\/strong>as well as\u00a0for the exchange of Philippine cultures.<\/p>\n

Government leaders, non-government leaders, and international partners will spearhead forums on youth in peace, vulnerabilities in conflict, peace amidst diversity, and the essence of peacebuilding in the achievement of quality education, poverty alleviation, access to health\u00a0care, and sustainable livelihood.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

PIYC unites youth leaders across the regions of the Philippines as well as tribes and indigenous people\u2019s groups. It also brings the country\u2019s rich culture in one venue through various segments, such as the Cultural Festival, a cultural exhibition and networking night, among others.<\/p>\n

Further, PIYC targets to involve the youth with government and non-government actors, which will be facilitated with a flow of plenary and breakout sessions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

PIYC hopes to integrate the Filipino youth in building a strong foundation for sustainable development and the stability of peace. Interested participants may register here<\/a>\u00a0for only Php 2,500<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
