For fisherfolks

Cardinal Pablo Virgilio David, Christian S. Monsod, a framer of the 1987 Constitution, and Grizelda Mayo-Anda, a veteran environmental lawyer and advocate for coastal communities, file a petition before the Supreme Court en banc on Thursday, April 24, 2025,, seeking to overturn a lower court decision that permits commercial fishing within the 15-kilometer municipal waters traditionally reserved for small-scale fishers under Philippine law.
