00:00Do you know that you can earn a salary abroad without leaving the country?

00:05That's what the so-called Metaverse Filipino Workers are discarding.

00:10That's why the Department of Information and Communications Technology

00:13is focused on the development of this industry in the Philippines.

00:17That's what Rod Lagusa said.

00:21Other countries don't need to earn a lot anymore

00:24because technology has an opportunity for this.

00:27This is because the number of so-called Metaverse Filipino Workers

00:31or Filipino earners are increasing

00:33in using digital platforms and virtual environments

00:36such as creating content or providing services in the virtual world

00:39where they don't need to leave the Philippines

00:41and leave their families behind.

00:43For example, a non-employed virtual assistant.

00:47The Department of Information and Communications Technology

00:50is focused on the development of the ICT industry in the country

00:53where the Business Process Outsourcing or BPO is included,

00:56Digital Creative Industry such as Animation and Gaming Development,

00:59Digital Startups,

01:01or Emerging Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence.

01:04Our mandate includes ICT Literacy and Competency Development.

01:11So we have a lot of trainings, upskilling, reskilling,

01:14when it comes to providing digital jobs.

01:17This includes social media marketing, graphic design, using Canva.

01:22And this is what's new, the Metaverse Filipino Workers.

01:25This includes what we call online games.

01:31The DICT is open to everyone who wants to join the training.

01:34You don't need to be an IT graduate and it can be done online or face-to-face.

01:39We also bridge them to potential employers.

01:43In fact, we also recruit resource persons or trainers

01:49from the industry, potential employers or companies

01:53who will join them after they graduate.

01:57And to bring it closer to more Filipinos

02:00who support the construction of caravans in different parts of the country,

02:04YGG Pilipinas, the regional partner of Yield Guild Games, is included.

02:10What we want to do is really grow the number of communities

02:14and community leaders around the country.

02:16So even as we're not there,

02:17our footprint and impact in those areas is growing.

02:22It's when we empower really the communities to learn amongst themselves,

02:28to teach each other, to trust each other.

02:30It's important to show that there's an opportunity to learn and earn here

02:34because this is what people are looking for.

02:36The so-called caravan will start in April and will last until August.

02:40Rod Lugusad for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
