PHILIPPINE
BIODIVERSITY SITUATION
AND
CONSERVATION PRIORITIES
This website was created
consistent with the program of action of the Biodiversity Advocacy and
Capability Building Program under the leadership of the Biodiversity Working Group of University of the Philippines
Baguio. One of the intentions is to make the content of the book cited below
within the reach of all biodiversity conservation advocates throughout the
Philippines and the world. Other materials will be available in this website
or, at least, this website will be linked to other basic materials and
documents on the Philippine biodiversity situation and conservation priorities.
