“To be in a conference together with people who all advocate for good governance made me realize that it is possible for us to achieve a better country with future competent leaders who think that the voices of the youth matter.” said Dexter Yang, Executive Director of GoodGov PH.

With speakers from the government, the private sector, and civil society organizations, the delegates will tackle governance issues through mentorship sessions that will cover topics such as civic engagement, lobbying, and direct participation in local governance concerning four key sectors: education, health, economy, and environment.
