If you’re a young Filipino-Canadian ready to connect, learn, and be inspired, Pinoys on Parliament (POP) is the place to be.
As Canada’s first and largest national leadership conference for Filipino-Canadian youth, POP is bringing together the next generation of changemakers for a weekend packed with workshops, panel talks, and cultural experiences from February 21–23, 2025 in Ottawa.
This year’s theme? Panahon (pah-nah-hon): a word that means season, time, or moment.
Don’t Miss the Community Symposium!
On Sunday, Feb. 23, 2025 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., POP is opening its Community Symposium to the public at the University of Ottawa, Faculty of Social Sciences Building.
Shop from local Filipino-owned businesses, discover inspiring organizations, and support the vibrant Fil-Can community.
Vendors include Salaysay, Kalamansi Collective, Pinay Collection, umi.soapery and thrift_sola.
POP is proudly organized by Kabangka, a youth-led movement empowering Filipino-Canadian youth to lead, connect, and make an impact.
Since its launch in 2019, POP has grown from 100 delegates to over 300, creating a space where young Pinoys (ages 16-30) can network, learn new skills, and shape the future.
