    Katutubo Makilaban:* A Study on How the Indigenous Peoples assert their Rights through the Media Focusing on their Portrayal in Radyo Sagada A Qualitative Research Report Submitted to Professor Clarinda Berja Department of Social Sciences College of Arts and Sciences University of the Philippines Manila In fulfillment Of the Requirements in Political Science 198 Second Semester 2014-2015 By Ann Claryn B. Yap 2011-18329 May 29, 2014 * Makilaban – Pakikibaka; Struggle KATUTUBO MAKILABAN ABSTRACT The indigenous peoples continue to face different issues which include defending their ancestral land and resources, and struggling for self-determination through the preservation of their culture and tradition (Molintas, 2004). And as they continue to assert their rights, the media remains to be one of the avenues for the indigenous peoples to pursue their struggle (Sapkota, 2013). The media is expected to become receptive and responsive when it comes to the issues faced by the IPs. Contrary to this expectation, indigenous peoples continue to experience discrimination in the media through misrepresentation in media packaging, therefore, resulting to racism and stereotyping (Brown, Myers & Wilkes, 2010; & Plater, 1993); and the inaccessibility of the media itself (Roberts, 2006). In the Philippines, there is already an existing form of media that is owned and managed by indigenous peoples. Radyo Sagada made a breakthrough for the IPs’ right to freedom of expression (Villanueva, 2011). This study aims to identify how indigenous peoples are able to utilize the media focusing portrayal in order to assert their rights. It also aims to understand the dynamics between the indigenous peoples and the media through identifying the similarities and differences in the portrayal of IPs in news materials.

    Evaluation of Control of Foot and Mouth Disease in the Philippines

    Evaluation of Control of Foot and Mouth Disease in the Philippines GCP/PHI/041/AUL (Consolidation Phase) Report of the Evaluation Mission November 2001 Preface The following draft represents the views of the independent evaluation mission on the performance and achievements of the Control of Foot and Mouth Disease in the Philippines (CFMDP) project. The project began its first phase in 1996; following an independent technical review and in line with the recommendation of a Tripartite Review, a consolidation phase was approved in 1999. The present evaluation focuses mainly on this phase of the project. The evaluation was initiated with a view to providing the donor, collaborating agencies and FAO with an independent and objective assessment of the current status of implementation of the project, including a review of problems faced. The mission started on 18 October 2001 and ended on 31 October 2001; six regions involved in the CFMDP project were visited as well as discussions held with collaborators at municipal as well as at provincial level. In addition, the mission visited relevant offices in Metro Manila. Evaluating CFMDP was a stimulating as well as taxing assignment given the far-ranging history of the project, the area covered and activities implemented by the project, as well as the intensive travel schedule of the mission. The evaluation mission is most appreciative of the efforts made by the staff and management of CFMDP, the GOP officials in Metro Manila, the regions, provinces and municipalities visited, and the FAO representation, as well as a range of other individuals who provided information and discussed issues in a frank and constructive manner.
