Plan's Youth Reporter activity in January 2014 gathered together 280 children and young people from 12 communities in Leyte and Eastern Samar - provinces in the Philippines where Typhoon Haiyan dealt the most damage.
The activity provided an opportunity for these young Filipinos to share and process their experiences during the typhoon in a supportive environment. Using Flipcam video cameras and working in small groups of “junior news crews”, they were able to express their opinions and needs as disaster-affected children and youth to the rest of the world in a creative and empowering manner.
