Our webinar will feature speakers Tinay Palabay of KARAPATAN, and Mong Palatino of BAYAN, in addition to speakers from ICHRP and the Friends of the Filipino People in Struggle (FFPS). Live Cantonese language interpretation will be available.

ICHRP reiterates its call for accountability for all those responsible for massive theft of funds for flood control projects and other infrastructure projects.

The Filipino people have been particularly affected by recent typhoons as a result of systemic failure of the Marcos Jr regime to implement much needed flood control infrastructure, as well as its failure to limit the impacts of environmentally destructive industries like logging and mining.

Urgent support is needed to ensure provision of supplies, food, shelter, and recovery efforts in affected areas.

Within the last two weeks, Typhoon Tino (Kalmaegi) devastated the Philippines, killing at least 220 and displacing at least 400,000. In its wake, Super Typhoon Uwan (Fung Wong) has killed at least 8 more and displaced nearly 1,500,000.

As an organization founded in 2013 to campaign for just and lasting peace, ICHRP joins with the Filipino people to call on the international community to expose Marcos’ Fake Peace agenda and take a stand with the Filipino people for a just peace.

This fake peace agenda is escalating fascist state terror under the GRP’s counter-insurgency program and upholds US military interests in the region in order to protect foreign profit and domestic bureaucrats.

But the Marcos Jr regime has responded to the people’s demands with a war of suppression and disguised in peace rhetoric.

Workers, peasants, Indigenous People, youth, students, women, church people, and professionals campaign for genuine land reform, national industrialization, and national sovereignty.

On the heels of the ICC arrest of former President Duterte – a victory belonging to the Filipino people – the nationwide mass movement in the Philippines continues to organize for a genuine peace based on justice under the rabid Marcos Jr regime.

To join in the international solidarity effort to support the peasant movement, you can help cover travel and hosting expenses of Filipino farmers and international solidarity activists during this month’s peasant mobilizations:

As we continue to campaign to support the peasant movement in the Philippines throughout October, it's important to expose the connection between the high-profile issue of government corruption with the daily struggle of peasants for land and sovereignty.
