Utility Guide of the Manual
As a short guide, this manual shall be utilized with the following steps in
mind:
9
THE SANGGUNIANG KABATAAN ENVIRONMENT
General Objective:
Guide SK officials and relevant stakeholders in the recognition and performance
of duties, functions, and responsibilities as youth leaders in the community.
Specific Objectives:
a. Provide a clear, precise, and concise process flow that will guide SK
officials in the effective and efficient execution of day-to-day
management of affairs;
b. Enumerate duties, obligations, and responsibilities of an SK official
along with the expected documentation to enable proper actions;
c. Articulate principles and practices that SK officials should know in
fulfilling mandated work;
d. Cultivate social, moral, ethical, and civic values among SK officials in
relating to relevant agencies and stakeholders.
10
The Local Government Code of 1991 ensures direct participation of the
youth in local governance, through the SK, in two mechanisms. One, the young in
the barangay are empowered to legislate policies, programs and activities
involving the welfare of the youth members in the community. Two, SK elected
officials spearhead the implementation of these program initiatives. Through these
opportunity structures, youth leaders can shape and control actions and policies
rather than mere imposition upon them.
The institution of the SK paved the way for autonomy among the youth
and their selected leaders in pursuit of their welfare. Policies and laws
establishing the organization in government provide an avenue for the youth in
the barangay to articulate interests, shape decisions and contribute to driving
community development.
B. Historical Development
11
2015 The enactment of Republic Act 10656 led to the
postponement of the 2015 SK elections
2016 Republic Act 10742 or the Sangguniang Kabataan Reform
Act was signed into law instituting major reforms in the
Sangguniang Kabataan
2017 Republic Act 10952 was enacted which set the schedule of
the synchronized Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan
Election on May 2018
2018 The first election under RA 10742 was conducted and
marked the return of the SK
2022 Republic Act 11768 was signed into law instituting
additional reforms in the Sangguniang Kabataan
2023 The second election under RA 10742, now amended, was
conducted
1. Kabataang Barangay (KB). The first of its kind that allows direct participation
of the youth in government. Through the proclamation of Presidential Decree
No. 684 by Ferdinand Marcos in 1975, the young people were given the
opportunity to serve in government. Mostly, the youth here are those
belonging to ages 15 to 18 years old.
12
deliberated the need for convergence among youth organizations and
stakeholders.
To resolve these issues and challenges that haunted the SK, the NYC and
some relevant agencies of government were quick in advancing remedies. On 15
January 2016, efforts came to fruition through the passage of the Republic Act (RA)
No. 10742 or the Sangguniang Kabataan Reform Act of 2015. The primary goal
of this national policy is to usher the important role of youth participation in
nation- building by cultivating better citizens through the values of patriotism,
honor, service, and volunteerism. Significant reforms include but are not limited

B. The Continuing Training Program (Revised IRR, Rule V, Section 31)
The SK paved an opportunity structure for the young people to serve fellow
youth and the community. It plays an important role in achieving community
development since it upholds the values of collaboration, volunteerism, and social
concern. It also serves as a fertile ground for the youth in the Philippines to nurture
potential for leadership that can be utilized in confronting social problems and
challenges.
The SK in its ideals and objectives, prepares the young people in the
community as future leaders of the country. Hence, it is necessary to consider the
following outlook in the exercise of leadership functions in governance.
55
a. Leadership is a matter of influencing fellow youth in making them realize
their value in the community.
b. Leadership is shepherding fellow youth in harnessing their contributions
to achieve a better society.
c. Leadership is the cultivation of citizenship through continuous search of
initiatives to address issues and problems among the young people.
d. Leadership is the ability to achieve development by ensuring the welfare
of the members of the community.
The Local Youth Development Plan (LYDP) is a three-year plan crafted by the
Sangguniang Kabataan Pederasyon at all levels (Provincial, City, and
Municipal). It is anchored on the Philippine Youth Development Plan and shall
give priority to programs, projects, and activities that will promote and ensure
the following: 1) meaningful youth participation in nation-building; 2)
sustainable youth development and empowerment; 3) equitable access to
quality education; 4) environmental protection; 5) climate change adaptation;
6) disaster risk reduction and resiliency; 7) youth employment and livelihood;
8) health and anti-drug abuse; 9) gender-sensitivity; 10) social protection; and
11) capability building and sports development.

Motions
● A proposal to bring a subject to a group for its consideration and action. When the motion
is talked about and discussed, it is often called “the question”. Motions are not all the
same. They fall within certain classes, and some take priority over others.
Classes of motions:
1. Privileged Motions: Privileged motions do not relate to the pending business but deal
with special matters of immediate and overriding importance. Privileged motions may
interrupt debate before the assembly.
2. Subsidiary Motions: Subsidiary motions assist the assembly in treating or disposing of a
main motion. Since they relate to the question before the house, it is in order to propose a
subsidiary motion when a main motion is still before the assembly. The vote on the
subsidiary motion is taken before the action is taken on the main motion.
3. Incidental Motions: Incidental motions are motions incidental to another motion pending
or incidental to other business at hand, such as suspending the rules or closing
nominations. No order of precedence is required of incidental motions. These motions
arise incidentally and are decided immediately.
4. Motions That Bring a Question Again Before the Assembly: These motions bring a
question that has already been considered by the assembly back before the assembly, as
in the case of the motions to rescind or take from the table.
5. Main Motions: A main motion is a motion whose introduction brings before the assembly
a question or business for consideration when no other business is pending. Only one
main motion can be considered at a time, and no other main motion may be introduced
until the first one is disposed of in some manner. These motions are listed in order of
precedence.
