B. Sample of Training Design San Fabian (Pangasinan) Sangguniang Kabataan Formation and Training Program I. Rationale A major building block of the country is its youth since they are the inheritors of the present generation and the architects of the country’s future. It is for this reason that the participation of the youth in governance is being harnessed through the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK). Through the SK, it is hoped that the youth will appreciate their role in community growth and eventually, nationbuilding. For the SK to be effective, it is necessary that they undergo capacity building activities that will sharpen their skills in constituency building and sector mobilization. This training program hopes to equip the SK officers and other youth of selected barangays in San Fabian, Pangasinan with the tools necessary to become active participants in their communities. The training program is a collaboration of the municipal government of San Fabian, SK councils of San Fabian, NetWorks Inc., and UPLB Pahinungód. The municipal government of San Fabian has been very eager to involve the SK councils in development initiatives that will strengthen its inter-barangay integrated programs for productive and progressive people and communities. The SK councils, however, feel that they lack some competencies and capabilities to assume responsibilities in these initiatives. To address this issue, this training program has been organized.

II. Goal The training program aims to equip the SK officials with understanding of and capabilities in: Good youth leadership in their community; Coordination and facilitation of meetings and projects; and Youth participation in community development.

III. Activity Design There are four main running threads and three major themes that integrate the activities, discussions and exercises in the training program. These are summarized in Table 1. Meanwhile, the inputs that will be given emphasis, process that the participants will undergo, and outputs expected to be produced are summarized in Table 2.

A. The four running threads of the training program are as follows: Valuing of self Teamwork Community consciousness Service B. The activity has three themes, namely: Ako at Tayo: focuses on knowing one’s self and others leading towards understanding the value of teamwork and how it can be done Tayong Kabataan at Komunidad: teamwork will be applied in the community context specifically as applied to the youth sector; why the youth are important, the value of community, and the mechanics of the SK will be covered by this theme Tungo sa Pag-unlad: builds on the previous two themes and focuses on how the youth can take part in the growth of the community Table 1.
