  • Initiatives in Citizenship Building in Abra Province
    INITIATIVES IN CITIZENSHIP BUILDING IN ABRA PROVINCE A Publication of Concerned Citizens of Abra for Good Government (CCAGG) Funded by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Through the Civil Service Commission‟s Award No. 00041065, Building Integrity in the System of Governance 1 Table of Contents Introduction The Concerned Citizens of Abra for Good Government (CCAGG) as a People‟s Watchdog A Speech in My Sleep (From the Column KEEP IT BURNING) First People Power in Abra: The Tubo Experience From 3.6 Kilometers to 28 Kilometers: The Case of a People‟s Will for Self- Determination in Malibcong, Abra The Empowered Adasens of Bacooc, Lagangilang, Abra: A Case Study The Indomitability of the Human Spirit: The Case of the Indigenous Peoples of Boliney The Authors 2 Introduction For a long time, many people of Abra are bystanders. They are passive, apathetic and are seen but not heard from. This is because government officials have taken them for granted. During elections, politicians woo them for their votes and are promised good governance. But after their proclamation as winners, they lord over the citizens who placed them into the pedestal of power. They do not create avenues for the Abrenians to speak their thoughts, much less consult them even in matters that affect their lives. But this picture has slowly altered, thanks to pro-development organizations which organize, enable and empower them. Many Abrenians now know their rights and even claim them. They have grown in their self-esteem, have become vigilant, and participative in community undertakings. They have realized that their elected officials are answerable to citizens, hence, have learned to exact accountability and responsibility.

  • National Solidarity Mission to the Province of Abra April 4-7, 2014 Initial Report
    National Solidarity Mission to the Province of Abra April 4-7, 2014 Initial Report Introduction: This April 4-7, 2014, a National Solidarity Mission was held in response to one of the gravest cases of human rights violation in the Cordillera region in recent years – the massacre of the Ligiws of Sitio Sucao, Barangay Domenglay, Licuan Baay, Abra. On March 7, 2014, Fermin Ligiw, Eddie Ligiw and their aged father, Licuben Ligiw, were found buried in a shallow grave near their hut after they went missing on March 3. Their bodies were piled up in the grave. The body of Eddie was at the bottom. He was shirtless when found. On top of him were the bodies of his father, Licuben and his brother, Fermin. All were in fetal position. The hands of Eddie and Fermin were bound by thick nylon ropes. There were rope marks around the neck of Ama Licuben. Eddie had dark marks in the chest area. Fermin’s head was “nalumo” (iloko term) meaning that some parts of his head were macerated. The Ligiw clan and members of the community highly suspect the 41st IBPA as the perpetrator of these brutal extrajudicial killings. Even after the Ligiws were laid to rest, harassment, threats, intimidation and other human rights violations heightened in the community due to the continuing presence of the military. The three victims and their immediate family are members and leaders of BALITOK (Baay Licuan Takderan Umno a Karbengan), KASTAN (Kakailian Salakniban tay Amin a Nagtaudan) and CPA (Cordillera Peoples Alliance). These organizations have long been under attack by the AFP with their political vilification campaign branding these organizations as terrorists.

  • Land and Cultural Survival: the Communal Rights of Indigenous
    Land and Cultural Survival: The Communal Land Rights Land and Cultural Survival: of Indigenous Peoples in Asia Development in Asia faces a crucial issue: the right of indigenous peoples to build a better life while protecting their ancestral lands and cultural identity. An intimate relationship with land expressed in communal ownership has shaped and sustained these cultures over time. But now, public and private enterprises encroach upon indigenous peoples’ traditional domains, extracting minerals and timber, and building dams and roads. Displaced in the name of progress, indigenous peoples find their identities diminished, their livelihoods gone. Using case studies from Cambodia, India, Malaysia, and the Asia The Communal Land Rights of Indigenous Peoples in Philippines, nine experts examine vulnerabilities and opportunities of indigenous peoples. Debunking the notion of tradition as an obstacle to modernization, they find that those who keep control of their communal lands are the ones most able to adapt. About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries substantially reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to two-thirds of the world’s poor: 1.8 billion people who live on less than $2 a day, with 903 million struggling on less than $1.25 a day. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member Land and Cultural Survival countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.
