Philippine NGO Council on Population, Health and Welfare Inc.

The Philippine NGO Council on Population, Health and Welfare (PNGOC) is a registered nonprofit organization with a tax exempt donee status.

PNGOC was founded on June 24, 1987 by 17 Philippine NGOs with the objective of becoming the voice of population and development advocates within the NGO, government and funding circles and to respond to the growing demand for NGO services in population, reproductive and sexual health and development. PNGOC is a leading advocate of the reproductive health care framework as espoused by the ICPD Programme of Action.

From the fledging organization of 17 NGOs in 1987, PNGOC has now grown to 97 member NGOs focusing on different development concerns and catering to various sectors of the population in all parts of the country.

The council strives to empower and improve the quality of life of Filipinos by advocating nationality and locally for reforms and by strengthening partnerships among its member-NGOs through resource mobilization, policy advocacy, information management, capability enhancement, research, and model development to implement and manage gender-sensitive and comprehensive reproductive health and sustainable development programs.

Over the years, PNGOC's programs are achieved through the support of its partners like United Nations Population Fund, the Asian Development Bank, David and Lucile Packard Foundation, Consuelo Foundation, World Bank, Japan International Cooperation Agency, Ford Foundation, AusAID, USAID, International Labor Organization and the Global Fund for AIDS, TB and Malaria.
