Last May to July 2020, three youth organizations – two in Quezon City, Metro Manila and one in Capul, Northern Samar – were involved in

“Youth-led Action-oriented Research (YAR) on the Impact of COVID-19 on Marginalized Youth”. They documented twenty-five (25) stories of the marginalized youth as primary data focusing on how they have coped-up with the pandemic. They classified the issues they are facing into economic, health, social, and education aspects and consequently put forward their recommendations regarding these during and beyond lockdown. Completed print and video documentations of the stories and a terminal report were submitted to ASPBAE.

E-Net facilitated a follow-up online consultation to these youth groups on what are the urgent activities the needed to do in their respective community.
