Iligan Youth Empowerment Through Governance and Leadership

The Iliganon Youth Governance Bootcamp, spearheaded by the DILG-Iligan City Office, gathered Iligan’s youth leaders for a capacity-building event focused on governance, leadership, and active community involvement. Hosted at Ditucalan National High School, the bootcamp provided valuable training sessions designed to enhance the participants’ leadership skills and understanding of participatory governance.

The CMO-BAO, as one of the city’s key partner offices, played an essential role in the event’s coordination and success. Through its support, the office demonstrated its ongoing commitment to empowering Iliganon youth and nurturing the next generation of community-driven leaders.

By promoting youth inclusion in local governance, the initiative aligns with Iligan’s broader vision of sustainable and participatory development across its barangays.
