About AER
Action for Economic Reforms (AER) was founded in 1996 by a group of progressive Filipino scholars and activists,
as an independent, reform-oriented and activist policy group.
It works on four main areas:
AER provides timely and sharp policy positions based on a grasp of economic, legal and political tools. Complex economic and governance issues are scrutinized with analytical, technical and political sophistication, carefully handling finer points such as timing, sequencing, policy mix, and tradeoffs.
How We Work
AER’s independence and rigor enable it to credibly engage the various branches of government, social movements, academe, media, interest groups and international institutions. AER employs various strategies to influence or change policy and practice: research and analysis, lobby and dialogue, networking and coalition building, legal action, media work, publication, and public education.
