Social NetWorth is a workshop that was conducted by Mulat Pinoy in February 2012. The participants hailed from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao, and were comprised of an impressive set of college students who are leaders in their own communities. With speakers from Mulat Pinoy’s partner organizations, the participants learned about media theory and practices, the emerging rules and recommendations for social media, and the basics of population and development. Using this new knowledge, the participants returned to their communities to set up their own popdev projects, promoted and documented through social media.
Jan Aldwin Cutin, Kirk Joseph Nerona and Georg Kevin Paquet are all from Davao, and their project focuses on popdev issues specific to Mindanao. In particular they want to talk about adolescent sexual and reproductive health and rights (ASRHR).
Cool In Tongue is blog of 3 young Mindanaoans who are committed to informing and educating their peers about Population and Development, Adolescence Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (ASRHR), Gender Sensitivity, Equality and Equity, Family Planning and STI/ HIV and AIDS Prevention through peer education and social media.
