RETHINKING POLICY FROM THE ISLAND UP

BAYBAYIN FUTURES

We are a think tank advancing island-consciousness in the Philippines. We bridge the gap between academic research and public policy to advocate for livable, resilient, circular, and culturally vibrant island communities.

OUR VISION

A Philippine archipelago where small island communities are recognized as distinct, viable, and livable centers of life: powered by regenerative economies, grounded in local heritage, and resilient by design.

OUR WORK

Public Policy Advocacy

We study government policies, programs, and projects with the goal of advancing more island-appropriate models of governance and development.

Best Practice Documentation

We document and share best practices being implemented by island communities and their partners, highlighting their impact and potentials.

Co-Designing Solutions

We partner with Local Government Units (LGUs) and community organizations to pilot regenerative, innovative, and empowering projects.
