Institute for Policy, Strategy

and Developmental Studies, Inc.

OUR MISSION

I.P.S.D.I.  was created to contribute to human development in the Philippines through its programs on Public Policymaking, Youth Empowerment, and Social Mobilization for Development.


We focus on human development as our ultimate goal, and we believe that all other aspects of development are a means towards this goal. It is creating an environment where everyone is given the chance to develop their full potential, and to improve their quality of lives.



Our Programs

Public Policymaking Workshops

Public Policy is playing an increasingly important role in society, especially now that societal problems continue to evolve. 


This workshop is for leaders and those aspiring to be one. In this one-day, free workshop, you will gain practical policymaking skills that you can apply in your own organization.


Registration for this workshop is currently closed. You may follow our facebook page to be updated as soon as we open it. 

Youth Empowerment

When you empower the youth, they develop their full potential and become active contributors to human development. 


In 2021, we have successfully launched a youth-led voter registration campaign.


 This year, we have a series of workshops and youth programs that will help them influence public policy.  


With these programs, we help them create a shared vision, align it with their advocacies, and continuously help them reach their goals.

Social Mobilization

Economic growth does not necessarily lead to greater opportunities for all.  That's why we actively engage with policymakers to take the "people-centered" approach to development. 


Our social mobilization programs are geared towards directly enhancing people's abilities and creating conditions for human development.
