LATE UPLOAD:
SOYOSOY DI KULTURA. A Youth Camp on Cordillera Indigenous Knowledge and Cultures

Partners for Indigenous Knowledge Philippines - PIKP in partnership with Dap-ayan ti Kultura iti Kordilyera and Artista ti Kordilyera para iti Wayawaya conducted a three-day youth camp on Cordillera indigenous knowledge and cultures from July 24 to 26, 2026 in Avong Nen Romy, Wangal, La Trinidad, Benguet.

With the theme "Promoting Biodiversity Conservation Through Indigenous Performing Arts," the participants underwent study sessions and educational discussions about Cordillera indigenous values and practices, local biodiversity, and contemporary social issues our indigenous communities in the region are facing. The youth camp were also filled with workshops on Cordillera indigenous music and dances, song-writing, and community theater, realizing the artistic and creative skills of the participants.

At the end of the youth camp, the participants acquired a deeper and wider understanding of how rich and diverse the Cordillera indigenous knowledge and culture are, and of their role as young cultural bearers in conserving, nurturing and defending our ancestral lands, environment, biodiversity, and indigenous and local communities.

Daga, biag, tawid, ken kinabaknang, SALAKNIBAN!

Managni ya manliwliwa! When tradition meets modernity...🕺💗

This was during the "PALIN-AWÁ: A Benefit Concert for Manong Enteng" held in Heartland Resto Bar, Dominican Hill Road, Baguio City in August 21, 2025.

Vicente “Manong Enteng” Dilem is a 72-year-old veteran labor leader and dedicated organizer who has spent decades advocating for workers' rights in the Cordilleras. From 2002 to 2005, he served as an officer of the Lepanto Employees Union-NAFLU-KMU. He was also a former regional coordinator for Cordilleras and national council member of Kilusang Mayong Uno. He has been a steadfast organizer for workers in Philex Mines, Itogon-Suyoc Resources Inc. (ISRI), and Agro Foods.

Manong Enteng is currently in a critical struggle for survival. He has been diagnosed with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) with two-vessel involvement and urgently requires a Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. The medical procedure is estimated to cost P500,000 at the Baguio General Hospital and Medical Center.

This benefit concert is a collective effort to raise the necessary funds for Manong Enteng’ medical treatment. More than a musical event, this will serve as a concrete expression of solidarity and support for a leader who has given so much to the labor movement. 💗🎶✊

"Ikari da't init ken bulan
Amin a kapintasan
Ngem nu dumanon to't tiempo
Agpatingga ti sao, ay ay
Ayayayayay!"

We stand in solidarity with the people of Kasibu, Nueva Vizcaya, and all other communities who are fighting against the threat of destructive large-scale mining. We will never be deceived by the sweet words and promises by corporations and their enablers in the government. We will never again allow our land, environment, and communities be destroyed by greed and cruelty.

People and environment over profit!
Daga, biag, kinabaknang, salakniban!

Music: "Pagsarmingan"
Lyrics by the victims of Ambuklao Dam
Recorded by Salidummay in their 2000 album "Diway"
