“Since we launched Digiskarteng Pinay in 2019, we’ve seen how Filipinas have used YouTube to upskill themselves and provide livelihood for their families,” said Bernadette Nacario, Google Philippines Country Director.
“YouTube content creators play a critical role in the success of Digiskarteng Pinay and through the training workshop, we hope that we can further equip them with the knowledge and tools so they can further thrive on the platform. The more women content creators we support, the more Filipinas can benefit from the best of YouTube.”
