The presence of children and youth who are not in education, employment, or training in the Philippines is among the pressing concerns being faced today. The prevalent reasons for this phenomenon are the inaccessibility of education, poverty, and lack of interest, which are most observed in disadvantaged communities. As a complement to bringing education closer to them, the lack of interest can be addressed through a connective element that can teach trust, respect, independence, collaboration, and discipline to the youth in such precarious conditions. Pinoy hip-hop can serve as this link for Positive Youth Development (PYD). Its four (4) elements of rap, deejaying, break-dancing, and graffiti could be used as the means of identity and social space formation, leading to better communities. Hip-hop based practices have been used in career readiness programs, leadership development, and in community development work targeted towards at-risk youth. The resulting infrastructure is the Hip-Hop Youth Center in Tondo, Manila. Tondo was chosen due to the presence of impoverished communities, its unique hip-hop history, and the previous application of Hip-Hop development programs by non-profit organizations for the at-risk youth in the district. This facility shall provide a space for programs geared towards PYD, serving also as a platform for local hip-hop artists to showcase their craft and contribute to creative place making. The design approach is the Hip-Hop Architecture framework by Cooke (2021), the spatial manifestation of hip-hop. Hip-Hop Youth Center.
