BYDO CONDUCTS SPECIAL MONTHLY MEETING; SK REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO YOUTH GOVERNANCE
The Bongabong Youth Development Office (BYDO) conducted a Special Monthly Meeting of the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) to address various matters concerning youth governance, coordination, compliance, and the continuing implementation of programs and activities for the youth of Bongabong.
The meeting provided an avenue for the SK to discuss ongoing and upcoming youth programs and activities, financial concerns, reports and updates, coordination matters, and other important concerns affecting the youth sector.
Notably, the meeting marked the first time in two consecutive quarters that the Sangguniang Kabataan once again achieved a quorum, allowing the body to formally deliberate and act on matters requiring collective discussion and decision-making.
As part of its responsibility to strengthen its internal governance mechanisms, the SK also deliberated on the amendment of its existing Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of the SK Constitution and By-Laws (CBL). The proposed amendments aim to strengthen internal processes, clarify responsibilities, and promote more organized, accountable, and effective youth governance.
Also present during the meeting was Ms. Glaiza T. Abacan, the newly appointed Municipal Local Government Operations Officer (MLGOO) of Bongabong, who participated in the meeting and provided relevant guidance on matters concerning local youth governance, organizational processes, and the responsibilities of the Sangguniang Kabataan.
The BYDO remains committed to facilitating coordination, strengthening youth leadership, and supporting the Sangguniang Kabataan in fulfilling its mandate toward responsive, participatory, and accountable youth governance in Bongabong.
