The Green Party of the Philippines is a concept initially proposed by the Philippine Greens, an environmentalist movement in the country. The party would be established when Green activists have managed to build organized mass constituencies and Philippine electoral processes have been sufficiently cleaned up. From the Philippine Greens' perspective, the Green Party remains a concept that all Green-oriented groups and individuals can work towards. Currently no Philippine Green member occupies any official position.

However, other groups outside the Philippine Greens have also indicated their intention to set up a Green Party in the Philippines.

Officially, there is no Green Party of the Philippines registered with the Commission on Election. There are currently two "Green" parties in the Philippines, the Philippine Green Republican Party headed by Felix Cantal and the Partido Kalikasan ng Pilipinas (Phil. Green Party), founded on December 6, 2003. It has members nationwide. One of its chapters, the Cagayan de Oro Chapter in Northern Mindanao participated 2004 local election as Partido Kalikasan. The Partido Kalikasan and the Philippine Greens are both members of the Asia Pacific Greens which meet in February 2005 in Kyoto.
