2FAB supports the conduct of the 4th Regional Youth Leaders Congress
Mawab, Davao De Oro – The 2nd Field Artillery (First Round Accuracy) Battalion is one of the major partners in the conduct of the 4th Regional Youth Congress (4RYLC) on 08-10 April 2022, held at the Agila Hall, Camp General Manuel T Yan Sr., 10ID, Brgy. Tuboran, Mawab, Davao De Oro.
The 4RYLC was participated by 43 selected youth leaders of Youth For Peace Movement – TaLBoS (Tanan Lihok Batan-on og Sundalo) from 10 different provinces within Region 11 and Region 12. This year’s congress is capped with the theme “ROAD TO TRANSFORMATION: Establishing a New Path of Development for Peacebuilding and Social Inclusion amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic”. Various topics were discussed and given emphasis to support the four thematic advocacies of the organization; Organizational Development, Youth Development, Community Development and Peace Communication.
The organization is an extended partner of the 10th Infantry (Agila) Division for more than a decade in empowering the youth sector to be an active catalyst in promoting peace for all. Their four thematic advocacies which promote the cultivation of communities, peacebuilding, empower youth leaders and innovate their organization are pivotal in the Philippine Army, in general, to effectively clear the armed conflict areas, keep the youth away from deceitful recruitment of the CPP-NPA-NDF and empower the youth to be an advocate of peace.
Major General Nolasco A Mempin, Commander of 10ID acknowledge the significant contribution of the youth sector in winning against the insurgency, during his message in the closing ceremony of the activity. He added, “In order to empower them (referring to the youth), there is a need to acknowledge the youth’s vast potentials in nurturing them with the opportunities to participate and express themselves as one of the society’s most valuable assets, thereby contributing to peacebuilding.”
Meanwhile, DILG Secretary Eduardo Año, former 10th ID Commander and an avid supporter of YFPM TALBOS sent his video recorded congratulatory message and appreciation for the initiatives that made 4RYLC possible. He further motivates the youth and quoted, “As an activist, youth leaders, students, and peace-loving citizens help us ensure advocating the right approaches and policies for engaging young people, like you, and in turn, trust the national government including the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), will continue to strive, protect, engage, and empower the youth in the governance peacefully. We bow to help bring out the best in you; so, you can lead our motherland to a thriving and inclusive future.”
The 3-day activity was successfully conducted with the major support of the 2nd Field Artillery Battalion, 10th Infantry Division, JCI-Duwaling, and Kiwanis. Likewise, the YFPM-Talbos organization headed by Ms.Evadyne Dela Cerna, outgoing President, and Mr. Ian Mayaki, newly elected President, together with the other officers and members extended their warmest thanks to Lt Col Rosa Ma Cristina Rosete-Manuel, their adviser and mentor since 2011, for pushing them to materialize the activity.
