The Philippine Center or Economic Development Institute of Public Economics and Regulation (PIPER) is holding an annual policy forum engaging policymakers, national and local government officials, development partners, private sector representatives, the academe, non-government organizations, and media to tackle issues and topics of national importance.

Besides the participation of key stakeholders from a broad cross-section of the policy arena, the forum shall be distinguished by a presentation of evidence-based, analytical assessments of key issues to provide inputs in the discussions. Thus guided, the forum participants are expected to have more focused informed debates and reach wider, firmer consensus on the needed reforms.
