𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐄𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞 𝐓. 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝𝐚 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐀𝐒𝐈𝐒𝐓 𝐚𝐭 𝐅𝐎𝐈 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐫 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩

The Presidential Communications Office sponsored a 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩 held at the 456 Le Grande Hotel in Baguio City from December 3-5, 2024. Two student representatives attended: Ms. Novy Ann B. Neri, a member of the Bangued Campus Technocrat Editorial Board, and Ms. Emmarie T. Pineda, Student Government President of the Lagangilang Campus. Dr. Dylan Edward R. Raranga, the Technocrat Adviser accompanied them.

The camp focused on the Freedom of Information (FOI), aiming to educate students on government transparency and accountability, it also involved learning about FOI mechanisms and advocating for informed citizenry in order to empower youth to promote good governance and transparency through understanding and utilizing FOI.

Student Government President Emmarie T. Pineda shared her personal insights, reflecting on the impact of the camp:

1. What are your takeaways in the FOI Youth Ambassador Camp?

The Freedom of Information (FOI) Youth Ambassador Camp provided invaluable insights into the importance of transparency and accountability in governance. It is a great opportunity that every Filipino can request any documents and records in the government and any of the Agencies local. I also learned practical skills in accessing and utilizing FOI mechanisms, and the significance of advocating for informed citizenry. The experience underscored the power of youth engagement in promoting good governance and Transparency.

2. Learnings as SG President for ASIST Students: My experience as Student Government (SG) President has taught me the value of collaborative leadership, effective communication, and strategic planning. I have the hope and courage to share this with the whole University for them to access legitimate information and to lessen the burden of getting information online. I encourage ASIST students to actively participate in student governance, Workshop to be done in the upcoming Semester.I gained a deep appreciation for the power of information and how it can be used to create positive change. I learned so much about the FOI process itself, but more importantly, I learned about the importance of advocating for transparency and accountability. It was inspiring to connect with other young people who are passionate about making a difference.

𝐀 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐰 𝐛𝐲: 𝓕𝓻𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓮 𝓑𝓪𝓷𝓭𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓷

Through heavy days, I slowly tread,
With aching limbs and weary head.
The world may pull, the path may spread,
Yet sparks of hope remain widespread.

Each breath feels caught, a weighted chain,
A quiet war within my brain.
Still, step by step, I bear the strain,
And chase the dreams that still remain.

The hours blur, the nights seem cold,
My spirit bends but won't be sold.
For through the cracks, my heart takes hold,
A fire born from embers old.

Though shadows cling, the light is near,
It whispers strength through doubt and fear.
A voice within, so soft, sincere,
Keeps guiding me to persevere.

Each heavy step, each stumble through,
Unveils a sky of brighter blue.
For though the road feels rough to do,
It leads me to what I pursue.

Though burdens press, I’ll hold my place,
With steady hands, I’ll keep the pace.
For in this struggle, I’ll embrace
The courage born through every trace.

So though I’m worn, I’ll rise again,
Through storms of doubt and winds of pain.
Each weary moment, not in vain,
It fuels the fire I must sustain.
