In 2013, Rappler brought together journalism, technology and community in its coverage of the senatorial and local elections.

For the 2016 Presidential Elections, technology will bring together compelling journalism, an informed citizenry and an engaged crowd in one common journey: the search for #TheLeaderIWant.

To guide voters along this journey and help make informed decisions, Rappler and its partners will provide content, tools, conversations, and events that will help them assess and choose the leader they want based on issues that matter.

Media partners, DZRH-MBC & Media ng Bayan (formerly PTV-4), plan to “roadblock” about 200 television and radio stations across the Philippines and telecast the forum live from 3-5pm. Take part in the surveys nationwide on whatever platform you prefer: online, mobile, radio & television.
