rdf:langString Alyansa ng mga Grupong Haligi ng Agham at Teknolohiya para sa Mamamayan (lit. Alliance of Groups Supporting Science and Technology for the People), commonly referred to simply by its acronym AGHAM (Filipino: Agham or "Science"), is a national sectoral organization in the Philippines pushing for the participation of the science and technology community in the legislative process. It is currently running for a seat in the Philippine House of Representatives, under the party list system. AGHAM was founded by Dr. Raymundo Punongbayan, former head of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), after being frustrated by the lack of concrete advocacy for disaster preparedness and other science-related issues, both in the Philippine media and the Philippine government. AGHAM's membership includes "Filipino Science and mathematics teachers, field and laboratory research technicians and laborers, extension agents, engineers, inventors, health professionals, and science media practitioners and otherwise ordinary Filipino citizens who strongly advocate a science and technology-explicit national development agenda."
