INTRODUCTION

The Philippine Constitution provides that “the state recognizes the vital role of the youth
in nation-building and shall promote and protect their physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual and
social well-being. It shall indoctrinate in the youth patriotism and nationalism; and boost their
involvement in public and civic affairs.”

The enactment of the Sangguniang Kabataan Reform Act of 2015 (Republic Act 10742)
strengthens the active involvement of the youth in many government and civic activities. The
reform law and the existing Youth for Nation-Building Law (Republic Act 8044) are now the
most important laws that promote the empowerment and development of the youth in the
country. Through the empowered Sangguniang Kabataan, the youth now has an active venue
and safe space to express their opinions and ideas, develop skills and potentials and further
their rights and welfare.

While the Provincial Government of Isabela thru the leadership of Governor Faustino
G. Dy, III and Vice-Governor Antonio T. Albano, has since been a champion of the youth‟s
rights and welfare through its pro-youth advocacies and initiatives such as the provision of its
biggest and most comprehensive provincial scholarship program Bojie-Rodito Opportunities for
Education (BRO-Ed) now numbering 16,000 scholars, conduct of capacity-building programs
and activities, and the like, these initiatives need to be unified and institutionalized to best serve
the most dynamic sector of the Isabela citizenry – the Nagkakaisang Kabataang Isabeleños.

Hence, adhering to both the call and the mandate to continue championing the welfare
of the Isabeleño youth, the PGI on its 2018 General Annual Appropriations has included a
budget allocation for the creation of the Provincial Youth Development Office under the Office of
the Governor. The Isabela PYDO that formally started on April 30, 2018 aims to ensure that
Kabataang Isabeleños development and all programs, projects, activities and opportunities for
them are anchored on the nine centers for participation outlined in the Philippine Youth
Development Plan 2017-2022, which are as follows: (1) health, (2) education, (3) economic
empowerment, (4) social inclusion and equity, (5) peace-building and security, (6) governance,
(7) active citizenship, (8) environment and lastly, (9) global mobility. The office shall therefore
serve to help increase the youth proactive participation and self-awareness. To this end, this
intervention of the provincial government will effectively help every Kabataang Isabeleño reach
their dreams and aspirations.
 MISSION STATEMENT
The Isabela Provincial Youth Development Office seeks to create and ensure
the „Kabataang Isabeleños‟ proactive role and participation in nation-building
and in championing their right towards health, education, economic empowerment,
social inclusion and equity, peace-building and security, governance,
active citizenship, environment and global mobility.

VISION STATEMENT
The Isabela Provincial Youth Development Office envisions an active,
participative and self-aware „Nagkakaisang Kabataang Isabeleño‟ whose
dreams and aspirations are anchored on integrity, compassion and distinct
sense of youth patriotism, aiming to this end as productive members of
Isabela citizenzry.

OBJECTIVES
To register and verify youth and youth-serving organizations to the
Youth Organization Registration Program-Isabela (YORPi) and serve as secretariat
and provide technical assistance to the
Local Youth Development Council (LYDC).

To create a venue where Kabataang Isabeleños can actively participate and

realize their roles and responsibilities in nation, peace and security-building
through a program called Development projects, Innovative programs,
Transformative activities and Opportunities for Youth of Isabela (DITOy
ISABELA).

To proactively provide technical support thru capacity-building and

youth empowerment seminars and trainings to Kabataang Isabeleños
thereby making them active partners of the provincial government in
implementing its programs, projects and activities.

prospective youth organizations in the province by helping and facilitating them in registering
under their municipality/city and even in the province. The registered youth and youth-serving
organizations shall then compose the members of the Local Youth Development Council with
the SK Federation President and Vice-President as core members which shall be convened
through an election facilitated by the Local Youth Development Office. The LYDC shall
formulate the Local Youth Development Plan which shall be the basis of crafting the three-year
Comprehensive Barangay Youth Development Plan (CBYDP) and the Annual Barangay Youth
Investment Plan (ABYIP).

development stakeholders.

2.3. Establish a youth and youth-serving organizations directory in Isabela that would

otherwise known as the Sangguniang Kabataan Reform Act of 2015. It is the official

Development Plan (MTYDP 2005-2010), in coordination with concerned agencies. As

privilege of requesting assistance from the provincial government consistent to its set of
policies and guidelines.

3.4. Pursuant to the approved Resolution No. 127, Series of 2011, the YORPi shall also serve
as the Isabela Youth Sumbungan (IsYouS) Desk which shall assist the youth and youth-

After five long years of being inactive, the Sangguniang Kabataan was reborn through
Republic Act 10742 or the SK Reform Act of 2015. A new era for youth leadership has rolled

to rectify the mistakes of the past to raise an effective, responsible, and meaningful participation
of the youth.

Presidents of 34 municipalities and 2 cities. It served as a gateway to better understand the
cost of their position.

The activity started with a message of the Provincial Director of the DILG Isabela, Engr.
Corazon D. Toribio, CESO V. First session of the orientation was all about the legal basis of the
SK Pederasyon and SK Panlalawigang Pederasyon powers, elections, procedures, and

the engagement of youth and a broad discussion on the five features of SK Reform Act of 2015.

a lot of time, be very serious to find out, kung ano ba talaga yung top items na issues ng ating
mga kabataan”.

Governor Faustino G. Dy III administered the oath taking of the newly elected SK
Provincial Federation Officers. He acclaimed the oneness displayed by the SK Presidents,
“Simula pa lamang ng inyong samahan ay mayroon ng tiwala sa bawat isa… hindi lang sa
ganito tayo magsasama-sama kung „di marami pa pong mga pagsubok at hamon an gating
pagsasamahan para lalo pa po nating maitawid ng mas maganda ang kinbabukasan para sa
ating lalawigang Isabela”.
