Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP; transl. Faction for Change) is a political alliance[1] in the Philippines that began as a regional political party.[2] It was formed by Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte in 2018. The party was established in support of her father President Rodrigo Duterte's government.[3][4] In July 2018, the Philippine Commission on Elections granted the accreditation of Hugpong ng Pagbabago. In addition to the party's alignment with the Duterte administration, Sara Duterte said that she formed Hugpong ng Pagbabago "to pursue the ideals of what we all want, a strong region, a secure life for our constituents, good governance and effective leadership of the members of the party."[5]
The party campaigned for candidates for senator endorsed by the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte in the 2019 Philippine elections. Their plans to shift into a national party will depend on the success of their campaign to support pro-administration candidates in the elections.[6]
