FOOD

WWF-Philippines works to ensure the sustainable production of food for all Filipinos. Food is vital to all life, but the severe effects of climate change increasingly threaten it. Drought, severe typhoons, and flooding are a few calamities that are expected to become more frequent because of global warming. Filipino farmers and fishers, already among the poorest in the country, face greater risks in growing food for the population.

Sustainable Tuna

The Sustainable Tuna Program balances sustainable fishing with economic empowerment by supporting fisherfolk in improving fishing operations and working towards financial stability. WWF-Philippines assists communities to build their savings through the Group Savings and Loans Committees and also provides Catch to Cash incentives. The program opened more opportunities by developing alternative sources of livelihood.
