Open application: media fellowship from Mulat Pinoy
CONNECTING POP-DOTS: GRAB A GRANT!
The connections between population and development are among the many perspectives used when various sectors try to dissect the poverty rate and related issues in the country. The recent polls and platforms of electoral candidates paid significant attention to this central issue, as they become the essential criteria in lobbying for support.
Population is a basic element of any given system. The development of public health, the economy, education and many others is reliant on the complex interplay between population and development.
In the Philippines, as in many developing nations, the population issue is a pressing one, with basic necessities like food, shelter and education often unavailable or in very short supply compared to demand. Societal concerns like poverty, gender issues, environmental management and much more all rely heavily on population.
For the Mulat Pinoy Media Fellowship: Philippine Population in Focus, applicants have a chance to be awarded grants of up to Php 25,000.00. Participate and be an informed media practitioner! Learn more about population and development, and help us connect the dots. Proposals will be accepted until September 6, 2010.
Mulat Pinoy is composed of individuals whose common goal is to harness the power of socialmedia and the Internet to bring about a broader awareness of population and development (PopDev) issues. The project encourages various sectors to adopt and address PopDev issues in their advocacies, while simultaneously empowering the general public by informing them about what can be done through social media. This is a project of the Probe Media Foundation, Inc. (PMFI) and supported by the Philippine Center for Population and Development (PCPD).
