Abstract
Communication is the greatest tool that humankind has conceptualized. Through this, we were able to better our systems and share ideas that pushed our world into the 21st century. This research paper aimed to determine the success of World Youth Alliance Asia Pacific (WYAAP) for pushing their youth agenda of the universality of human dignity through social media as its medium of communication. The researcher gathered results through online survey questionnaires to the WYAAP’s members. The results shows that the impact of social media in advocacies strengthens the beliefs of the advocates and helps them feed and sustain what they believe in World Youth Alliance. From the researcher’s analysis, it is crucial for the organization to effectively communicate their advocacy and agenda through social media, however, it is an avenue for the advocates to continually grow and uphold human dignity in all fields in our society by sharing their ideas and opinions.
