National Indigenous Peoples Month in the Phillipines

 October marks National Indigenous Peoples Month in the Philippines, a time for reflection and celebration of the rich tapestry of cultures and traditions represented by our Indigenous Peoples (IPs). This year, the commemoration holds special significance as we mark the 27th anniversary of the Indigenous Peoples Rights Act (IPRA) under the theme: “Mga Katutubo at Katutubong Dunong: Pahalagahan, Pangalagaan at Parangalana” (Valuing, Nurturing, and Honoring Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous Knowledge). This theme underscores the crucial importance of recognizing and protecting not only the rights of IPs but also the invaluable knowledge systems they hold.

This program promotes and protects IP rights through various initiative. These include increased public awareness campaigns designed to educate Filipinos about the diverse cultures and challenges faced by IPs.

These initiatives also put into bold relief the importance of Indigenous knowledge systems in addressing challenges such as climate change, sustainable management of resources, and sustaining culture. Indigenous Peoples have traditionally protected the country's natural resources, in which their traditions played an essential role in discussions on preserving and being resilient to environmental conservation. Through the upliftment and protection of rights, there is recognition and the beginning of opportunities to achieve integrated and sustainable development.



National Indigenous Peoples Month serves as a ground to

The 2022 National Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS)     reveals a disturbing reality: nearly one in five women have endured emotional, physical, or sexual violence from their current or most recent intimate partner.
