You can never be too young to be aware, vocal, and empowered. Issues in society are multi-sectoral and intergenerational. The youth plays an important role in being pioneers of change towards a more progressive and proactive society.  In today's episode of "TALAKAYAN: The Podcast" the AB Political Science alumnus and Former Central Student Council President, Francis Gabriel "Kiko" Santos, will be sharing his insightful remarks to further motivate us to take our part as the youth of today in strengthening our involvement in our country's political landscape, promoting the idea of democracy and exercising our rights as the Filipino youth.

Chel Diokno, Filipino lawyer, educator, and advocate, join us as we talk about the importance of knowing one's basic human rights in today's political situation “TALAKAYAN: The Podcast”.
