UMALOHOKAN: A Revolutionary Movement for Voters’ Education, Truth, and Environmental Action

In an age where misinformation poisons public discourse, environmental crises demand immediate action, and the power of the vote determines the nation’s future, a groundbreaking movement emerges—one that dares to educate, inspire, and empower the youth to take a stand.

UMALOHOKAN: Para sa Kaalaman, Kalikasan, at Kinabukasan is more than just an event—it is a movement driven by digital influencers, thought leaders, and changemakers committed to truth and sustainability.

A MOVEMENT LED BY MEDIA INFLUENCERS AND ADVOCATES

This transformative event is organized by the Umalohokan team, led by Ross Flores Del Rosario, founder of Wazzup Pilipinas and External Vice President of the Green Party of the Philippines, and a dynamic force in the digital and advocacy space. This is in partnership with Umalohokan co-founder David D'Angelo, Chairman of the Green Party of the Philippines. With their leadership, the event gathers fact-checkers, election watchdogs, environmental advocates, and youth leaders together with social media personalities (vloggers, bloggers, content creators, influencers, and other active voices in the social media landscape), uniting their platforms to amplify the call for responsible citizenship.

Set to take place on April 13, 2025 (Sunday), from 2 PM onwards at Simbayanan ni Maria Community Foundation, 115 MLQ Street, Purok 2, New Lower Bicutan, Taguig City, this movement revives the spirit of the Umalohokan—the heralds of pre-colonial Philippines who spread truth and critical information to communities. Today, the digital age needs modern-day heralds to combat disinformation, encourage voter participation, and drive sustainable action.

A POWERHOUSE OF EXPERTS AND ADVOCATES

Featuring an all-star lineup of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), media literacy advocates, and environmental champions, UMALOHOKAN will provide young participants with expert guidance in three crucial areas:

VOTERS’ EDUCATION & AWARENESS – With the 2025 elections on the horizon, experts will demystify the electoral process, debunk common myths, and empower young voters to make informed choices.

FIGHTING DISINFORMATION – Fake news and propaganda manipulate public perception, but media literacy advocates will equip participants with the tools to fact-check, analyze sources, and stand for the truth.

ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY – Climate action cannot wait. Environmental leaders will discuss policies and practical steps that individuals and communities can take to protect the planet.

MORE THAN A WORKSHOP—IT'S A CALL TO ACTION!

UMALOHOKAN is not about passive discussions—it is about mobilizing action. Through interactive activities, networking opportunities with advocacy groups, and hands-on workshops, attendees will leave empowered with the knowledge and motivation to drive change in their own communities.

"We are at a defining moment. The youth must realize that their voices matter, their votes count, and their actions can shape a better world," said Ross Flores Del Rosario. "This event is about equipping them with the tools to fight for truth, sustainability, and good governance—both online and in real life."

BE PART OF THE MOVEMENT!

This is your chance to be part of something bigger than yourself. Whether you’re a student, young professional, digital creator, or an individual passionate about making a difference, UMALOHOKAN welcomes you to join the fight for an informed, empowered, and sustainable future.
