Kabataan, also known as the Kabataan Partylist (KPL, lit. 'Youth Partylist') and formerly known as Ang Nagkakaisang Kabataan Para sa Sambayanan (ANAK ng BAYAN, lit. 'The United Youth for the People'), is a partylist in the Philippines affiliated with the leftist political coalition Makabayan. It is currently represented by Raoul Manuel at the Philippine Congress since 2022. According to its website, the partylist represents the youth sector, and aims to "galvanize the Filipino youth’s unity for social change," believing that the youth should "devote its intellect, energy, and courage to building a new society devoid of corruption, inequality, and social injustice."[2]
The partylist was first formed in 2001 in the aftermath of the Second EDSA Revolution, and vied for a seat in the Congress in the 2004 elections, where they failed to secure a single seat. However, they managed to secure a single seat in the succeeding elections since then.
