Govt uses social media to boost campaign vs teen pregnancy

THE Commission on Population and Development (Popcom) launched a campaign to address increased teen pregnancies in the country by bridging the communication gap between parents and their children through social media.

The program, dubbed as "Konektado Tayo", was organized together with the Department of Health (DoH) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), and will use social media platforms such as Facebook to reach the target audiences and help improve the quality of conversations about love, sexuality, and relationships.
