About IBON
IBON is a research-education-information development institution. It undertakes the study of socioeconomic issues that confront Philippine society and the world today. It explores alternatives and promotes a new understanding of socio-economic issues that best serve the interests and aspirations of the Filipino people. Since 1978, IBON has fully developed into an institution that provides research, education, publications, information work, and advocacy support.
2023 Campaign
IBON Foundation worked to strengthen consumer’s rights to water and food by gathering together 40-50 organisations, institutinos, government officials, religious groups, environmentalists, transport workers and women and youth to discuss these topics. They identified policy recommendations to guide lobbying and arrived at points of collaboration where several of these groups can work together to advocate for change. A key outcome was the gaining of new allies and a stronger network.
