At the national level, CEC-Philippines advocates for people-oriented, patriotic, sustainable, and scientific policies and programs for the protection of the Philippine environment. At the global level, CEC-Philippines engages in information sharing, international networking, cross-cultural exchanges, and solidarity initiatives on common environmental issues and concerns.
