— theme:
Child Labour and Youth Employment
— country:
Philippines
Angono is a first class municipality situated in Rizal Province on the shores of Laguna de Bay and close to Metro Manila. With 62 per cent of its population under 30 years of age, youth unemployment is a major concern. In developing its own strategy for local economic development, the municipal government has sought to capitalize on this innate talent by building Angono both as a centre for tourism as well as for culture.
