Romeo Jocson Intengan, S.J. (18 October 1942 – 10 October 2017) was a Filipino doctor, social activist, and Jesuit priest. He was called "Archie" or "Nonoy".^{[citation needed]}

Intengan was outspoken in his advocacy for human rights and expressed his discontent with the Marcos regime's martial laws (September 1972) in the Philippines. Intengan was incarcerated and made his way to Europe to live in exile during the Marcos regime. While exiled, Intengan continued to work to restore democracy to the Philippines by collaborating with like-minded persons and organizations and calling for transparency and the end of abuse by state forces in the Philippines.

With the downfall of the Marcos regime in 1986 after the first People Power revolution, he led the efforts to help restore democracy through the Philippine Democratic Socialist Party (Tagalog: Partido Demokratiko Sosyalista ng Pilipinas) (PDSP).

In 2000, Intengan took a stand against former President Joseph E. Estrada. He signed the impeachment complaint against the former president, and after a series of peaceful demonstrations culminating with the second People Power revolution, the former President was removed from office.
