The Unilab Youth Camp for Change



Ideas have the power to effect positive change. A droplet of ingenuity can
create ripples of positive change, especially from the Filipino youth.

Unilab is looking for innovative ideas that can help improve the health and
wellness of people in communities. Unilab wants to help by working with the
Filipino youth in translating their ideas into a sustainable plan for a
community of their choice.

This June, Unilab launches Ideas Positive: The Unilab Youth Camp for Change
—an idea-generation camp and competition for college students that aims to
inspire fresh, developmental, and research-based social marketing
initiatives that promote and advance health and wellness at the community
level.

Through Ideas Positive, Unilab invites college students from Metro Manila.
Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Bulacan and Pampanga to submit their project
plans towards the betterment of the health and wellness situation of their
chosen community. Students may visit www.ideaspositive.com for details on
the competition. Deadline for submitting their entries is on August 16,
2010.

Also, students are invited to the Ideas Positive Clinic on September 23-25,
wherein the first two days are dedicated to a workshop on social marketing,
leadership, and project management skills by respected experts from the
following industries: community development, business, government and
health and wellness. The clinic will culminate on the third day where the
student finalists will be presenting their plans to a panel of judges.
