|
Roxas City – A series of fora has been set for this year’s Dungog: Indigenous Peoples (IP) festival from October 2 to 6 here to discuss the various concerns of different IP communities for appropriate course of action. The fora dubbed "Hinun-anon" will be held simultaneously with other festival activities will tackle eco-cultural tourism and heritage preservation, cultural education and livelihood, and cultural diversity. "This intends to uplift the IPs well-being as the recommendations from the forum will become the talking points for concerned national government agencies and policy makers," said festival director and Provincial Tourism Officer Alphonsus Tesoro. Tesoro also noted that case studies on best practices will be presented during the fora for learning and possible adoption of other IP groups. Some of the resource persons for the forthcoming discussions will include IP Broadcaster President from New Zealand and experts from the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and national government agencies. The Hinun-anon participants will include IPs, cultural masters, community elders, local government units (LGU) and national leaders, educators and students, environmentalists, tourism officers, cultural workers, non-government organizations, IP Committee members, and officers and members of Tourism, Cultural and Heritage Councils, among others.
