Be part of the MovePH network

MANILA, Philippines – Do you want to be part of a bigger movement? Do you have an event or activity that needs an extra social media boost? Do you want to harness the power of social media to amplify your group’s advocacy?

Whether you’re an individual or a member of a non-governmental organization (NGO) or student organization, Rappler’s civic engagement arm, MovePH, can help you out!

We want to help individuals or groups promote events, activities, or advocacies online. We also want to link you up with other like-minded organizations and mentors you can learn from.

All it takes is to be part of the MovePH network – an ecosystem of civic action enablers and doers collaborating towards sustainable progress and nation-building. 

Social good

In disaster preparedness and promoting climate change awareness, for instance, social media plays a crucial role. During Tropical Storm Ondoy (Ketsana) in 2009 and after Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) struck in 2013, social media was alive with people volunteering their time and resources to help survivors.

MovePH’s own Agos aims to harness social networks before, during, and after disasters to build more resilient communities.

It is for this reason that MovePH is building a community of Movers – people who want to bring about the change they wish to see in the world. 

We have projects and activities lined up for the year so we need volunteers who can help us do a number of crowdsourcing initiatives, from mapping flooded areas to reporting incidences of hunger. Volunteers who are willing to help organize community events like MovePH workshops and meet-ups are also welcome.

Join the MovePH network

We will have our first gathering for the MovePH network on June 30, a Saturday, at the Rappler headquarters in Pasig City.

During the orientation, we will present MovePH’s plans for the rest of the year, and discuss how we can work together for various advocacies.

Whether you’re an individual or a member of student organization, you can join the Move network by filling up this form. 

Expect a reply from Rappler within 5 days after you have submitted your form.

We’d like to move and grow with you through partnerships aimed at triggering ripples of change across the country. Tell us what we can do together. – Rappler.com
