    What is AmBisyon Natin 2040?

    AmBisyon Natin 2040 represents the collective long-term vision and aspirations of the Filipino people for
    themselves and for the country for the next 25 years. It describes the kind of life that people want to live, as well
    as how the country will look like by 2040. As such, it will serve as an anchor for development planning across
    at least four administrations.

    What is the difference between a plan and a vision?

    A vision is a picture of the future, a set of life goals and goals for the country, while a plan is a set of strategies
    to achieve these goals.In simple terms, a vision may be likened to a destination and thus answers the question
    “Where do we want to be?” while a plan lays out the pathways and modes for getting to the destination. Thus,
    Ambisyon Natin 2040 is, it is the vision that will be the guide and anchor of the country’s plans for the future.

    Why did NEDA start this long-term vision for the Philippines? Why only now?

    We know that development is a long-term process. It takes many years, even decades, for a country to reach a
    higher level of development so as to significantly raise living standards and, subsequently, eradicate poverty.
    But because of the current political system, government planning has traditionally been bound by the six-year
    term of a presidency. This has often led to discontinuity of even good policies and programs. Thus, stakeholders
    have been clamoring for a long-term development plan that will ensure sustainability and continuity of good
    policies, programs, and projects beyond the term a political administration.

    How did NEDA come up with AmBisyon Natin 2040? What was the process behind it?

    How the AmBisyon Natin 2040 process unfolded was a result of a consultative process. An Advisory
    Committee composed of representatives from the government, private sector, the academe, and civil society
    guided the overall implementation of the visioning exercise. Experts from different fields of development were
    also consulted, especially on the thematic technical papers. Guided by the Advisory Committee, NEDA led the
    development of the project’s various components, including public consultations through focus group
    discussions, national survey, technical studies, and communication and advocacy.

    Is the vision of “a simple and comfortable life” too low for the Filipino people?

    A simple and comfortable life to the Filipino people means having a car of their own, a house of their own, and
    enough money and savings to send their children to school and to afford leisure like travel – a middle class
    lifestyle. Upon closer look, these aspirations are achievable to many but not for all in the immediate term. And
    they may not be achievable simultaneously. Nonetheless, as people’s aspirations are driven by their current
    conditions, they may change eventually and gradually as their lives continue to improve.

    What is the meaning of the logo?

    The logo uses an eye icon to symbolize vision. It also serves as an eye-opener for Filipinos, reminding them that
    each citizen plays an equally important role in achieving the long-term vision. The four eyelashes attached to
    the eye resemble the sun’s rays, suggesting a bright future for the Philippines. Basic colors are used to evoke
    familiarity, as most are the colors of the Philippine flag.

    How can this long-term vision be sustained in the next four administrations?

    The long-term vision follows the idea of a progressive realization. This means that when an administration is in
    power, it needs to gain and establish ground so that succeeding administrations will have something to build on,
    until the end goal is reached. This involves setting milestones, having medium-term targets, and matching the
    vision with international timelines such as the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, among
    others.

    Also, after ten years, NEDA may conduct another survey to evaluate how far or close we are from fully
    realizing the 2040 vision and whether and to what extent aspirations have changed.

    How can the public support or advocate for AmBisyon Natin 2040?

    We are encouraging the public to use AmBisyon Natin 2040 as a topic for discourse and study in the academe,
    basis for goal-setting of projects and programs in our communities, among others. The public is also free to use
    (without major alterations) the visual materials and information posted on the AmBisyon Natin 2040 website
    and Facebook page. We are also open to talk about AmBisyon Natin 2040 in relevant external events and
    gatherings. There will be a string of public events in the coming months where the public is invited to join.
