The incessant bloom of out-of-school youth (OSY) cases in the Philippines has
been very evident through the years. As a matter of fact, a survey conducted by the
Philippine Statistics Authority had shown that one in every ten Filipinos aged 6 to 24 years
is an out of school child and youth, numerically written, almost 10 % out of the estimated
39 million Filipinos. In lieu with this, even a first class municipality in the Province of
Batangas has the rampancy of this particular issue concerning the youth called Nasugbu
– present in almost all of the forty-two barangays in the latter. This is categorically
dominated by a tiny barangay entitled Wawa, surprisingly with almost five hundred
records of OSY.
With that stated above, our group in Philippine Politics and Governance decided
to voluntarily conduct a ‘5-Sunday Recreation Camp’ to impart an alternative detour for
OSY instead of wasting their time on sedentary lifestyles. This camp aims to provide
assistance on how OSY of a seaside-located barangay can develop their attitude and
characters with the means of sports and activities that require physical power and skills.
In addition to that, this won’t only focus on developing their physical abilities but rather on
how will they cope up and deal with daily challenges that require critical thinking.
Most importantly, they will learn how unity, sportsmanship and camaraderie are
showcased throughout the course of our camp. Aside from that, they would also learn
self-defense for safety and security at times when unexpected occurrences take place.
OSY as a societal issue could be eliminated with the help of this ‘Recreation Camp’
only if the resources will be made readily available and accessible within a period of
necessary time.
A more detailed description of these activities will be discussed on our fourth section.
We expect that the children, teenagers and elders who will attend or visit our
recreational camp will have more knowledge about their health. We also expect their
participation and cooperation. Moreover, we expect that they will also gain from our
recreational camp to avoid their bad habits. They will listen to the speakers who will
discuss the tips of having a healthy lifestyle. Our recreational camp will be successful and
the participants will enjoy our prepared challenges and sports.

VI. GENERALIZATION
Through helping hands, visionary perspective and realistic outlook, we provide a unique
recreation camp experience that brings together sports activities with leadership training
for campers of all ages. We are able to do this although we are small by design. With our
committed staff to camper ratio, and small overall numbers, we aim to create an
environment of trust and a whole new Barangay where the youth actively resides.
Knowing that we focus on building positive relationships between campers and these
connections allow campers to discuss, develop goals and recognize achievements in a
safe space, it is a principal point to say that our camp brought betterment to lessen if not
completely eradicate the existence of OSY in Brgy. Wawa. Campers know their voice is
being heard and their ideas are being listened to. Notably, our agenda to use sports and
physical activities in inspiring a locale of almost 5,000 residents is, indeed, a triumph
inside the mind and hearts of everyone.
Likewise, campers become facilitators of change in their own lives. We encourage
responsibility by creating expectations for campers, rather than rules. Campers gain the
skills to act with confidence, courtesy, respect and responsibility at camp, home, and
chiefly in their community. We only have the minor resources and machineries, yet this
camp could be a major breakout to improve the lives of youth in Wawa.
As of 2016, our country is planted with almost 104 million people, and OSY cases are still
proved by the numbers. Consequently, our tiny advocacy to recalibrate the lives of almost
500 OSY in Brgy. Wawa could bring positive change only if Lord's guidance will prevail.
A 5-Sunday camp is a reality in the making to lighten the lives of 15,328 residents of the
said barangay. We know that the pillars of our society will come home with a new view
on life, learnings and optimistic interactions inside their communities.
