PHILIPPINES – National Geographic Channel (NGC) has chosen Filipino personalities who live curious and have excelled in their chosen professions and endeavors to become NGC’s local ambassadors for its ongoing “Live Curious” global program.
All about exploration, pioneering, and questioning, “Live Curious” captures NGC’s shared spirit of curiosity and inspires people to question what they know, how they view the world, and what drives them forward.
The “Live Curious” ambassadors are filmmaker and writer Joey Reyes, marketing executive Francis Flores, TV host/producer and advocate for children Daphne Oseña-Paez, advertising executive Norman Agatep, and Rock Ed Philippines Founder Gang Badoy.

Other local ambassadors also include science writer and The Mind Museum curator Maribel Garcia, WWF-Philippines CEO Jose Ma. Lorenzo Tan, educational media producer Mitzi Borromeo, and social ecopreneur Bryan Benitez McClelland.
In partnership with fashion and conceptual photographer Niccolo Cosme, the Makeup Forum, the Ayala Malls and The Mind Museum, the “Live Curious” photo exhibit toured the Ayala Malls late last year.
“We chose to present our ‘Live Curious’ ambassadors through a photo exhibit to promote inquisitiveness as a way of life and give our campaign a local face that Filipinos can relate or identify with,” said Jude Turcuato, FOX International Channels Territory Director.
“This Live Curious photo exhibit is not just a collection of the curiosities of our local ambassadors, it also represents the myriad of curiosities that millions of ordinary Filipinos have,” Turcuato said.
