Meeting people face to face, we

emphasize the deeply personal

nature of the vote and

underscore its value to each and

every individual – whether

already a voter, or belonging to a

generation that will inevitably

live with the consequences of the

choices their elders make.

As we travel the length of the largest island of the

Philippines , we will be sending images to the rest of the

country through social media. In doing so, we underscore

for voters in other parts of the country what is truly at stake

in every elections, beyond the mere thrill of picking the

winning side.
