The Fellowship of the 300


300With a goal of establishing a strong centrist-oriented group, the CDPI conceptualized the “Fellowship of the 300,” a program that is composed of well-rounded political technocrats who stand by the efforts of Centrist groups, organizations, movements, parties, and member networks in advocating for centrist democratic ideals. It follows that they understand the necessity of organizing, facilitating, and sustaining Centrist parties and organizations.
The CDPI Fellowship is a select group of men and women that distinguishes itself for its high level of commitment to the values, ideals and principles of Centrist Democracy. It is an exemplar of leadership that cultivates a renewed culture of discipline, integrity, initiative, and excellence, where members can take pride, ownership, and responsibility for its achievements.
The Fellowship provides a channel to inculcate in a new breed of patriotic Centrist Democrat leaders, by way of training and capability building, a dynamic, reform-oriented political and socio-economic paradigm. The Fellowship dedicates time, talent, and resources for the advancement of the Centrist Democratic cause in the Philippines.
