Network Coordinator, SDSN Youth Philippines

Rafaella Villena

Warmest greetings to my fellow youth!

I am Rafaella, Network Coordinator of SDSN Youth Philippines, a community of passionate and committed young people and youth advocates driving meaningful change in their communities and transforming society at large.

At SDSN Youth Philippines, we recognize youth as active agents of change. Across the country, young people have long been at the forefront of challenging the status quo, and advocating for genuine and sustainable development that center people and the planet.

In the face of the increasingly complex challenges confronting humanity, we are called to truly live out what it means to be the ‘pag-asa ng bayan.’ I invite all youth-led and youth-serving organizations to join us in building a network where we can create meaningful impact together and shape a future where no one is left behind.
