Invitation to All Media Reporters to the 2010 National (Filipino) Youth Assessment Study
The National Youth Commission Philippines (NYC) is pleased to announce that the 2010 National Youth Assessment Study is now underway.

The study, which is conducted through secondary and primary data-gathering and research, is held every 5 years across all 17 regions of the country. It aims to provide an update on the profile of the Filipino youth – their prevailing values and attitudes in relation to their needs, aspirations, and problems.
