The Civil Society Network for Education Reforms or E-Net Philippines is a national coalition of civil society organizations engaged in policy advocacy and partnerships for education reforms. Since our inception in 2000, at the same time that the Education for All (EFA) movement has revitalized globally, E-Net has been committed to expand and strengthen civil society participation in reforming the Philippine education system and in developing alternative learning systems with particular concern for the marginalized, excluded and vulnerable sectors (MEVS). “Education for All” has been our banner call then, and now as E-Net endeavors to continue the EFA movement in the light of the new Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG4) aimed to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all”.

To respond to the call for strong education advocacy, E-Net Philippines is launching E-Net Academy, to foster a global community of education advocates and provide a platform for advancing capacities through sharing of resources and information, and capacity building initiatives. This academy will strengthen the capability of the coalition as research, information, and capacity-building hubs.
