We are Pasali Philippines 

We are Pasali Philippines Foundation, an organization active in Mindanao, Philippines founded by migrant Filipinos in the Netherlands. PASALI intertwines the transfer of technology, knowledge, and resources by skilled Filipino migrants and partners for the development of rural areas, the integration of returning migrants and the creation of opportunities for youth. Our staff and volunteers is composed of Tri-people -Indigenous People groups, Moro and Settlers. One third of the staff are women and 50% are youth (younger than thirty years old).

Pasali is a member of the Dutch Consortium of Migrant Organizations (which is a member of the EUROMAD), the ABSNET network for the protection of children, founding member of the Juvenile Justice Network in General Santos City, member of the SOCSARGEN Consortium for Peacebuilding, and the Consortium for Social Protection. 

We do appropriate technology, sustainable agriculture, social protection, and immediate response

Agroforestry 
Planting trees to build economies and mitigate climate change? Rubber trees layered with food crops, fruit trees, or timber trees? Developing a scheme for sustainable agro-forestry.  
The Rice Contract Farm
9 in 10 farmers all over Palimbang mortgaged their farmlands. Now their debts are so high, they lost all hope of ever getting them back. This is how applying SRI in a business model can remove farmer families from the debt trap.
