The Youth Integrity Program (YIP) is an initiative that aims to instill the values of honesty, responsibility, and accountability in young people. YIP recognizes that the future lies in the hands of the youth, and thus, it is essential to equip them with the tools to become ethical leaders in their communities.
Through YIP, young people are exposed to various activities and resources that help them understand the importance of integrity. These activities range from leadership training and mentorship programs to community service projects that allow them to put their values into practice.
To ensure a successful program, YIP collaborates with schools, community organizations, and local governments. By working together, they can create a network of information and support that fosters the growth of ethical leaders.
The Youth Integrity Program is not just about teaching values, it is also about empowering young people to make a positive impact on their surroundings. YIP firmly believes that integrity is not just a word, but a way of life. By teaching it to the youth, we are investing in a better future for us all.
Under the YIP, there are sub-programs to capture the interest of different section of the youth. The programs comprise as:
- YIP for early childhood
- YIP for school (PP-XII)
- YIP for tertiary level
- YIP for public/private employees
- Integrity Club
YIP seeks to establish a strong foundation of integrity, beginning at the formative age by strengthening integrity education within the Early Childhood Care and Development curriculum as well as through Parenting Education. This is undertaken through the development of DAMTSI activity book for ECCD facilitators.
