Welcome to CHM Philippines

The Philippine Clearing House Mechanism (CHM) is established to facilitate the sharing of data and information on the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity between and among the various stakeholders in the country. This is part of the Philippine commitment to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) which created the Clearing House Mechanism pursuant to Article 18.3 of the Convention. The CHM aims to contribute significantly to the implementation of the CBD by promoting and facilitating technical and scientific cooperation among Parties, other Governments and stakeholders.

Sharing of information is done through a web-based information system using this website (http://www.chm.ph)
