Alfredo Coro II - Mayor of Del Carmen, the Philippines

Del Carmen Mayor Alfredo Coro II is currently a member of the ICLEI Southeast Asia Regional Executive Committee and the ICLEI Global Executive Committee as the Biodiversity Portfolio holder. Over the past 15 years, he has actively engaged in environmental policy development and advocacy at both the local and regional levels. He played a pivotal role in the development of the Siargao Island Protected Landscapes and Seascapes (SIPLAS), among other local initiatives that saw him working with various stakeholders, including government agencies, non-profit organizations, and community groups, to champion environmentally sustainable policies and practices.

Under his leadership, Del Carmen has also instituted several climate resilience-linked projects in the health and education sectors. For the former, this includes the Seal of Health Governance (SOHG), a health governance program responding to all the Department of Health (DOH) programs and local initiatives needed to address key health targets. SOHG has bagged various recognitions from national award-giving bodies, including the 36th Philippine Council for Health Research and Development, Zuellig Family Foundation, and Champions for Health Governance by Merck Sharp & Dohme, Kaya Natin! Movement for Good Governance and Ethical Leadership, and the Jesse Robredo Foundation with the support of the Department of the Interior and Local Government. For the latter, this includes Project EQuIP (Education Quality Improvement Program) which aims to address educational gaps, produce globally competitive students from early childhood to college, and provide special skills education. Both SOHG and EQuIP have been instrumental in Del Carmen's recovery after Super Typhoon Odette which struck in December 2021.
