How Gen Z and Millennials are changing Philippine elections

Teka Teka

In this episode of Teka Teka, we explore the real impact of Millennials and Gen Z—who now make up over 60% of the voting population—on the 2025 midterm elections. Political experts, campaign strategists, and youth organizers unpack the growing political power of young voters, their grassroots involvement, and why the so-called "youth vote" remains complex and misunderstood.

Featuring insights from Dr. Julio Teehankee, Bianca Lacaba, Alan German, and Dr. Jean Encinas-Franco, this post-election deep dive reveals how the youth are transforming campaign strategies and challenging traditional political dynamics in the Philippines.

This episode was produced by Jyn Garcia and engineered by Anthony Tobias. Jaemark Tordecilla is our editor-at-large.

For another post-election analysis, check out our conversation with Michael Yusingco, Senior Research Fellow at the Ateneo Policy Center. We also have an episode on the opinion of Filipinos on democracy and how that shapes their voting decisions.
