Why social media
Social media it simply to communicate with different people and our target group youth, so it is important to us because it easily to communicate with youth. Since  many youth visit the internet, especially in the facebook ,  we use facebook to send a message, create an events so it help us to mobilize the youth.  It is an  awareness tool for youth.  YCP also uses  telephone to communicate with the youth from the rural because the internet it is not available in the rural area .  Most of the information is compiled and presented on YPC’s  website. This  helps  partners, stakeholders, donors and frequent visitors  to get more information about YPC work.
