Mulat Pinoy-Kabataan News Network

2014-08-06 12:25:09 Mulat Pinoy Is passionately empowering and informing young people through social media! They have done amazing social media engagement around sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) issues among others. Based in a Philippines, creativity and youth energy flow in Mulat Pinoy.

2014-08-17 23:00:59 Mulat Pinoy has been very supportive on youth actions towards better Philippines!

2014-08-17 23:32:36 The efforts of Mulat Pinoy have made a solid effort to normalize healthy discussion about sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) among Pinoy youth. Their human-scale approach makes SRHR issues accessible, without dumbing it down, or resorting to cheap, alarmist sensationalism. Where other groups might resort to judgement and finger-pointing, Mulat Pinoy engages in a level-headed discussion on the power dynamics of youth sexuality. Yes, it can get messy, but it's worth untangling the complex matrix of horomones, rationalization, internalized social values, conflicted feelings, and yes, CHOICES, at the heart of all SRHR issues. Mulat Pinoy's social media presence represents a concerted strategy to engage directly with young Filipinos online *and* an organic extension of their activities in 'meatspace'. For those who can't make it to their kapehan sessions with decision-makers, or moderated panel talks, their live documentation on social media is vital, useful way to take part in the exchange.

2014-08-18 01:44:05 Healthy sex, condom use, planning, logic, sustainability... can all occur if we help each other open up to what is best for ourselves and each other. Unfortunately efforts to educate mothers, fathers, and their growing families are hindered greatly by taboos, uninformed religious leaders, and rigid mindsets. Mulat Pinoy counters that by employing youth, the future of the country, to ask and share information pertaining to reproductive health openly to the populace. Thanks to Mulat, the future of the Philippines is in good hands, but they need all the help they can get.

2014-08-19 01:37:06 An effective platform to educate young people on PopDev

2014-09-09 02:18:10 Innovative, educational use of social media for reproductive right. :)

2014-09-09 02:50:42 Mulat Pinoy deserves to be recognised for their Pro-youth, pro-progress stance on population and development issues!

2014-09-10 01:20:06 Mulat Pinoy is doing a great job in orienting our youth in the different issues facing our society today as well as making decisions and suggestions on how to solve and face those problems as well! Bravo!

2014-09-10 09:01:02 They are doing a great job in the implementation of their programs.

2014-09-11 03:48:14 Mulat Pinoy is doing an amazing work for the lives of young people by utilizing social media. Their passion and commitment to fulfill the sexual and reproductive health and rights of the young people truly contributes to the reduction of teenage pregnancy, STI, HIV and GBV in the country by providing information and education on sexual and reproductive health and HIV not just among young people, but also among parents, civil society organizations, development partners, local government units and government agencies.

2014-09-14 20:54:25 Excellent project with amazing implementation!

2014-09-15 04:49:13 This project truly helps the young ones access accurate information.

2014-09-15 09:45:08 Mulat Pinoy empowers young people to tell their stories and talk about issues that matter to them. They have done an amazing job of creating a youth-friendly forum for population and development issues and sexual and reproductive health rights, in a country where cultural taboos hinder families and communities from talking openly about sex and where young people lack access to knowledge, information, life-skills, and services that will enable them to make good decisions.

2014-09-15 09:50:44 Mulat Pinoy is a great example of how to use social media to engage the youth, and to empower them. They provide the gentle but firm nudge to young people to express their opinions and to actively participate in issues, big and small, that have an impact on their lives and their country.

2014-09-15 11:17:17 Mulat Pinoy recognizes and addresses one of the problems that tends to be overlooked in the Philippines today--the lack of avenues for young people to talk about sex and sexuality frankly, in a non-judgmental atmosphere. They also use platforms that are relevant to young people today, that is, social media, in order to disseminate information and engage them in discussions.

2014-09-15 12:07:16 In a densely populated country like the Philippines, information dissemination is a crucial challenge. Mulat Pinoy’s efforts are laudable -- they harness the energy and social connections of the youth to spread the word on reproductive health, family awareness, and development issues. They are making a huge difference for all.

2014-09-15 12:23:02 Mulay Pinoy cuts through the information noise online by providing sensible and critical reportage on important concerns that normally escape young people's radar. They do not only report, they elevate consciousness. Personally, I have witnessed their commitment to covering RH events, amplifying the message of this very timely advocacy.

2014-09-16 23:51:37 They do great work in maximizing the technology to give knowledge and skills for all especially among people! Empowering young people to be more responsible in using the technology and highlighting issues and trends for young generations today and in future

2014-09-17 02:19:35 Youth story tellers and the social media can reach more young populations about the issues they confront in daily lives like HIV, sexual and reproductive health, crime and politics.
