Economy and Environment Group Philippines “Transcends boundaries, broadens perspectives, and builds partnerships.” Thus, the Economy and Environment Partnership for Southeast Asia was created.

ABOUT US
The Economy and Environment Group in the Philippines (EEG Philippines) was established in 2015 as part of the Resources and Environmental Economics Foundation of the Philippines (REAP). EEG Philippines focuses on building capacity for transdisciplinary research and promoting Regional collaboration in addressing global and local economic and environmental challenges. The EEG Philippines is a partner-member of the Economy and Environment Partnership for Southeast Asia (EEPSEA). The partner countries of EEPSEA include Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Lower Mekong Sub-region countries of Thailand, Lao PDR, and Myanmar. HOW EEG CAME ABOUT
For more than two decades, the Economy and Environment Program for Southeast Asia (EEPSEA) has supported training and research in environmental and resource economics to strengthen local capacity in the economic analysis of environmental problems. Now that a cadre of researchers has grown in the Region, each country has attained sufficient capacity to establish in-country environmental economics organizations. In the May 2014 Researchers’ Conference of the Economy and Environment Program for Southeast Asia (EEPSEA) it was decided to establish in-country Economy and Environment Institutes (EEIs). These EEIs would federate into a regional organization to continue the capacity building work of EEPSEA. In the Philippines EEPSEA alumni have gained experience and expertise in the field of environmental economics. Their research outputs have influenced local and national policies, contributed to community development, and enhanced academic curricula. EEPSEA alumni agreed to create a group within the Resource and Environmental Economics Foundation of the Philippines (REAP), Incorporated. Thus the Economy and Environment Group in the Philippines (EEG-Philippines) was created. OUR ORGANIZATION
The EEG-Philippines has a core group of experts of different disciplines including environmental economics, sociology, environmental science, and physical sciences. An advisory group composed of international and local experts of various disciplines provide oversight to the EEG-Philippines. The officers of REAP provide administrative support and oversight on the activities of the EEG. The core group and other members and potential members automatically become members of REAP, Inc.

PAX SILICA.

Debates surrounding the country’s participation to this US-led coalition are ongoing. The arguments may have highlighted the potential advantages and disadvantages. However, an important question remains:

Have we taken a broader and deeper look at what is at stake for the Philippines?

Let us go beyond the immediate advantages and disadvantages and aim for a more comprehensive understanding of the opportunities, risks and responsibilities associated with this undertaking.

Join us for a multidimensional discussion on Pax Silica—its potential economic, environmental, social, technological, and geopolitical implications for the country.

Together, let us examine:
• What could the Philippines gain from participating?
• What are the potential economic, environmental, and social costs?
• What conditions and safeguards should be in place to protect resource security, social equity, environmental sustainability, and technological capability?
• What evidence should guide public decision-making and policy choices can help safeguard the country’s long-term national interest?

Let’s talk about this through an online Roundtable Discussion, hosted by the Economy and Environment Group Philippines (EEG Philippines) together with the University of the Philippines Visayas (UPV) and the UPV Socio-Economic Research and Data Analytics Center (SERDAC) on 2 October 2026 at 1:30 PM via Zoom.
