About Us

A Bit of Background

In November 1991, the mainstream Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) and People's Organization (POs) in Palawan formed the Palawan NGO Network, Inc.  The motivation was to present a broader NGO consensus that would carry more weight in the policy-making process in various local government units in the province.
With its creation, NGOs hope to maximize the impact of their respective programs by being able to consult and coordinate with one another. PNNI believes that uniting the NGOs and POs towards a common pursuit, it can strongly influence the direction of development for Palawan. Since then, PNNI has actively involved itself in numerous provincial concerns.

Development Agenda

PNNI will work towards the sustainable development (balancing of the use and preservation/protection of Palawan's natural resources) and recognize that local communities play a major role in the management of resources. Any development measure that will not promote sustainable development will not be tolerated.


Access to Palawan's natural resources will be democratized in favor of the marginalized sectors of Palawan's society (small scale fisherfolks, indigenous peoples, small farmers, urban poor and women).
