Coalitions for Change

Recognized globally for its innovative and flexible approach, the Coalitions for Change (CFC) project has had significant and transformative policy impact in the Philippines, particularly on transport infrastructure, broadband internet, education, good governance and credible elections, and security sector reform. One notable policy outcome in 2018 was the law on Free Internet Access in Public Places, which improves internet connectivity throughout the country with the use of satellite and other technologies. Supported by Australian DFAT, CFC emphasizes leadership development, thereby expanding the Development Entrepreneurship network of capable and empowered government and civil society leaders. These leaders utilize and share adaptive and politically-informed approaches in pursuing a wide range of critical reforms
