We use science and partnerships to protect the environment and people

Story

From April 3-10, 2025, I will be participating in an all-female hiking expedition led by HER Planet Earth to the Cordillera region of my home country, the Philippines.

Our expedition aims to raise funds for Conservation International Philippines to support its mission of protecting the country’s diverse ecosystems and empowering indigenous people and local communities.

The funds raised will specifically support Conservation International Philippines' partner community: the indigenous women of the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park in Palawan. These Tagbanua women are actively engaged in reforestation efforts through tree planting, seedling production, and environmental monitoring. I am proud to contribute to a cause that not only protects the environment but also enhances the livelihoods of women.

Our 70km trek will take us to breathtaking landmarks, including the Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Mt. Pulag, one of the tallest peaks in the Philippines. Along the way, we will immerse ourselves in the region's unique culture and connect with the local community.

About the charity

We know that human beings are totally dependent on nature — and that by saving nature, we’re saving ourselves. To that end, CI is helping to build a healthier, more prosperous and more productive planet. We do this through science, policy, and partnerships with countries, communities and companies. Over the years, CI has helped support 1,200 protected areas and interventions across 77 countries, safeguarding more than 601 million hectares of land, marine and coastal areas.​​ Our work is moving entire societies toward a healthier, more sustainable development path — so that we don’t use up today what we’re going to need tomorrow. At CI, we don’t focus on one sector or one issue. And we’re not interested in short-term fixes. Instead, building upon a foundation of science, partnership and field work, we find global solutions to global problems.​​ We measure success in human terms. Our ultimate goal is to protect the most fundamental things that nature provides to all of us: our food, our fresh water, our livelihoods and a stable climate. Nature doesn’t need people - people need nature.
