Paolo Gabriel Dela Cruz Jamer (Philippines) (paolojamer10@gmail.com)

I was born on 10 March 1997 and raised in Naga City in Bicol, Philippines. My parents are Mary Ann D. Jamer and Richard C. Jamer. I have one sibling named Margarita Louise D. Jamer. I took up my primary and secondary education at Saint Joseph School in Naga City.

At present, I am a bona fide student of Bicol University as an incoming second year college student taking Bachelor of Arts in Broadcasting. I was given the opportunity to join I CAN Youth Summit 2015 on February 2015 at Patio de San Jose, Malilipot, Albay, Philippines. I will be representing Luzon as one of the elected officers. My wish to become a peacemaker and an advocate of change motivated me to join the Tenth International Youth Peace Ambassador Training-Workshop held on May 2015 in Indonesia. My long term goal is to set an example and motivate the youth to make use of their capabilities to become productive Filipinos. I want the youth to get involved in their respective communities and to come up with civic activities so that they can help the government in nation building. As Dr. Jose P. Rizal said, “Youth is the hope of our nation.”
