A local organization usually needs three (3) major skills sets to survive: 1) the skill to pursue its reason for being and to effectively engage within and outside its niche, 2) the skill to manage its activities, operations and resources, and 3) the skill to find the resources it needs to grow and sustain itself, its people and its activities. GreenPact is in the same journey and we would like you to sail with us. Our team has tools and resources that can help enhance your capacities in areas we mentioned above. We can help enhance your capacities in Systems Thinking, or in using the Open Standards for the Practice of Conservation where we can build situation models and theories of change. We can both be a learning organization with science-based processes that can help enhance our business processes, strategies, systems and structures. Who knows, maybe together we can progressively achieve  levels of capacities and competencies that can measure up to or even surpass the standards of some donors!

GreenPact’s Conservation Planning and Management service equips LGUs, businesses, and CSOs with strategic, science-based approaches to sustainable land and resource management. Using the Open Standards for Conservation Planning, we develop results-driven, adaptive strategies that align with global best practices. We can help LGUs craft City Land Use Plans (CLUPs) that integrate conservation, climate resilience, and sustainable development—ensuring that growth aligns with environmental integrity. We also embed capacity within organizations, empowering them to sustain conservation initiatives beyond consultancy. Whether integrating ecosystem services into local plans, designing nature-based climate solutions, or guiding businesses toward sustainability, GreenPact turns conservation into a proactive force for securing livelihoods, strengthening resilience, and making sustainability a practical reality for all.

On December 12, 2015, governments of the world came together in Paris, France to discuss the issue of climate change. There they adopted the Paris Agreement in a meeting called Conference of Parties 21 or COP 21. The Paris Agreement calls for the global community to work together to limit global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius and to strive for 1.5 degrees Celsius. This means we should all strive harder to keep the warming of our planet to below 2 degrees Celsius since the industrial revolution to avoid further extreme weather conditions like floods, drought, and strong typhoons. At GreenPact, we can help you explore forest-based options to contribute directly to our country’s Nationally Determined Contribution or NDC – the document containing our commitment to the Paris Agreement. We can embark on a journey towards carbon neutrality while helping our forest communities stop deforestation and arrest forest degradation. We can collaborate with our government for your performance-based carbon credits which can also come with some perks like a stronger brand integrity and reputation among employees, consumers and other stakeholders.

GreenPact believes that the true success of any initiative happens only when it benefits all stakeholders regardless of gender, age and socio-cultural beliefs.  Our team has been in the forefront of creating an environment where women can meaningfully participate in the design and implementation of development initiatives.  We can work together to facilitate the convergence of resources that could further empower women and allow them to avail of services and support they are entitled to. We can assist you in mainstreaming gender into your programming with appropriate metrics for monitoring and evaluation. Together, we can contribute to addressing inequalities, discriminatory practices and unjust distribution of powers that undermine the potential of people, especially women, in contributing to real, inclusive, and sustainable development.

The current pandemic highlights the need for a more dynamic online tools and management systems that can sustain supply chains of our enterprises. Flourishing home-based online businesses and work-from-home arrangements are testimonies to these new normal modes of doing things. For us at GreenPact, the challenge is how do we systematically and productively bring in our stakeholders into the new digital world? With problems of connectivity and availability of resources, local communities can even be further marginalized. If you work with us, we commit to help you find solutions to connect your stakeholders to your overall initiative through information technology. We can design web-based management systems that would allow you to conduct real time monitoring and reporting for quicker actions and decision-making. An integrated online platform can also help you promote your products and ensure consumer engagement even during shocks like this pandemic.  Yes! Digital Inclusion is the key!
