Today, we celebrate the courage and resilience of our Filipino fisherfolk. They don't just feed the nation, they are the first line of defense for our marine life. 🌊🐟 But facing climate change and ecological degradation alone isn't enough. We need a systemic shift. By advocating for the Rights of Nature, we ensure that our oceans are legally protected to regenerate, directly securing the livelihoods of the communities that depend on them. A healthy ocean means a thriving fisherfolk community. 🐋✨ #NationalFisherfolkDay #RightsofNaturePH #PMPI

NYLI CSC Joins the 2nd Rights of Nature Youth General Assembly 2026 The NYLI Climate Solutions Center joined the 2nd Rights of Nature Youth General Assembly 2026 with the theme, “KaRoN in Action: From Young Voices to Collective Power for the Rights of Nature.” in Antipolo City. The three-day assembly brought together young environmental advocates from various regions of the Philippines to learn, connect, and strengthen the youth movement for nature and environmental justice. The event aimed to raise awareness and transform youth voices into collective action through discussions, workshops, community immersions, and organizing activities. Participants also explored concepts such as the Rights of Nature, Deep Ecology, and Ecofeminism, as well as proposed environmental legislation, including the Rights of Nature Bill. One of the most impactful moments of the assembly was the community visit to Tinipak River, where participants listened to stories from Dumagat-Remontado members about the threats posed by the proposed Kaliwa Dam project. This project could lead to the displacement of families, destruction of ecosystems, and loss of culture and livelihoods. Hearing these firsthand experiences highlighted that environmental issues deeply affect the lives and futures of communities. During the event, participants shared their initiatives and advocacy efforts related to the Rights of Nature, fostering connection through an exchange of experiences and cultures. These moments reinforced our shared commitment to protect both communities and the environment. A heartfelt thanks to PMPI and @rightsofnatureph for this meaningful opportunity to be part of the growing movement for environmental justice.

From Classroom to the Ground: The Fight for Our Future. 📢 Earth Day hits differently this year. We are moving forward with the collective wisdom gained during Worldwide Climate and Justice Education Month. We’ve spent the last few weeks learning; now, it’s time to lead. True climate justice requires us to look beyond carbon footprints and address the root causes of environmental destruction and global planetary crises. It requires us to stand in solidarity with frontline communities and fight for a world where nature's rights are legally protected. The movement is here. Let’s raise our voices for Mother Earth and rise up for the justice our planet deserves! 🌍🔥 #YACAL#WorldwideClimate&JusticeEducationMonth #SolveClimateBy2030 #Youth

🇵🇭 In June 2025, over 60 Indigenous leaders from Bontoc, Philippines, came together to release the Bontoc Declaration of Stewardship and Sacred Responsibility — a powerful affirmation of their commitment to defend the Rights of Nature and protect their ancestral lands. 🌱 🗓️ As we mark the International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples on August 9, we recognize the vital role Indigenous communities play in safeguarding the Earth. This year’s focus emphasizes the rights of nature and the leadership of Indigenous peoples in tackling global challenges like climate change and biodiversity loss. 📜 The Bontoc Declaration is more than a statement — 📣 it is a call to action, a reminder that protecting the environment is a shared responsibility, and that Indigenous voices must be at the forefront of shaping a more just and sustainable future. @rightsofnatureph 🗺️ Explore the monitor to learn more about this initiative https://ecojurisprudence.org/initiatives/bontoc-declaration-of-stewardship-and-sacred-responsibility/ #IndigenousPeoplesDay #BontocDeclaration #RightsofNature #EnvironmentalJustice #IndigenousRights #EcoJurisprudence #ClimateAction #Biodiversity
