Indigenous Peoples Month


The National Indigenous Peoples Month in 2024, themed “Valuing, Nurturing, and Honoring Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous Knowledge”, highlights the contributions and rights of Indigenous Peoples (IPs) in the Philippines. The observance promotes awareness of their unique cultures and traditions through festivals, exhibitions, and dialogues, such as the Dayaw Festival, which showcases the diverse heritage of Indigenous communities. This celebration aligns with the Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act (IPRA), which ensures the protection of their lands, cultural integrity, and self-determination.


By involving local and national stakeholders, the month encourages collaboration in addressing IPs' challenges, including land disputes and limited representation. Programs under the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) help communities secure ancestral land titles and advocate for their needs through mandatory representation in governance, reinforcing their role in sustainable environmental stewardship.

Who am I?

Time passed, and a child was born. His loving parents were happy when they heard the baby's cry.   Hi there! It's me, Mark Kevin Domantay, but you can call me “Kevin.” I was born on April 24, 2009, at Gabriela Silang General Hospital. I am already in my fourth year of High School. My hobbies are playing basketball and volleyball. My talents are dancing and singing. I am very friendly, a positive person, and a good listener.   My future plans are: First and foremost, I would find work for a living. After that, I would continue our house and make improvements so my future wife and child/children won't have to worry about it anymore. After all of that, our family and I would travel all around the world.  www.blogger.com
