What we do in MMPH.

Four pillars driving real change in Philippine coastal communities

Like

Science
Communication

We conduct educational discussions online and on-site, with members leading similar activities in their schools and localities. Our goal is to deepen public understanding of coastal ecosystems — because knowing what we're fighting for drives meaningful action.

Policy
Lobbying

We work with fellow advocates to push for stronger policies that protect people and nature. Our campaigns include the single-use plastics ban, 11 proposed protected areas, the National Coastal Greenbelt Bill, and the High Seas Treaty (BBNJ Agreement).

Youth
Engagement

We believe the youth have the most at stake in today's environmental decisions. Through conferences, summits, and competitions, we amplify coastal community voices and equip young people with the knowledge and skills to advance coastal protection and restoration.

Nature-based
Solution

Through partnerships with NGOs, CSOs, and community organizations, we raise funds and donate materials to support local mangrove nurseries. We purchase seedlings from community partners and  rehabilitating coastal ecosystems while creating sustainable livelihoods.

We're volunteers, and we're already out there. No profit. Just people who care deeply about our coasts. If that matters to you, help us keep going.
