New app taps youth as “buddies” in peace process

From the Manila Bulletin (Oct 3): New app taps youth as “buddies” in peace process



A new mobile app that aims for the youth’s awareness of and involvement in the ongoing peace process has been launched.

The PeaceBOC (Peace Buddies Organizing for Change) app, which targets millennials, provides updates on the government’s peace initiatives and has a built-in crowdsourcing campaign called “The President’s Peace Challenge.”

In the campaign, peace-loving individuals can post their self-recorded videos where they share their insights about the peace negotiations by the government with the Communist Party of the Philippines, Moro Islamic Liberation Front, Moro National Liberation Front and other groups under the theme “Tayo ang Pagbabago, Tayo ang Kapayapaan.”

The app is now available for download on Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
