Kultura
Tagapangalaga ng kalikasan
magandang hapon po sa lahat. pleased to be here! i am elaine balbin, a rappler intern from moveph. for me po, ang mga indigenous peoples natin, while their sector may be taken as a whole, it’s a very diverse and rich one kasi may kanya kanya silang kultura at adbokasiya na pinaglalaban.
Magandang hapon! Ako po si Soria, isang volunteer ng MovePH. Inaasahan ko po ang isang makabuluhang talakayan kasama ninyo lahat :)
Para sa’kin, ang iniisip ko kapag IPs ay ‘suppressed’, - may boses at kakayahan, ngunit bihirang binabawalan magsalita o kumilos para sa kanilang komunidad
ancestral domain
sila ang mababang uri ng nilalang na minamaliit , marginalize people, mga taong bundok,ginagawang halimbawa ng mga bagay na na hindi kaayaaya sa paningin ng marami
Ako naman po si Ian, isang intern din po ng MovePH. Ang alam ko po sa mga IPs ay ang mga katutubo nating kapatid na naninirahan sa iba't ibang rehiyon ng bansa. Para po sa akin ay may malaking pangangailangan na talakayin ang kanilang mga karapatan, lalo't higit sa panahon ngayon na matagal nang umiiral ang sistematikong pagpapahirap sa kanila. Isang keyword po na naaalala ko tuwing maririnig ko ang IP ay: Oppressed
hello po! ang keywords po na naiisip ko sa sektor ay kalikasan, karapatan, at kultura.
Para sa ating speakers, Rachel, Elmalyn, at Judy, alin sa mga nabanggit ang sumasang-ayon ka base sa karanasan ninyo?
Great insights! Pansin ko na common keywords dito ay karapatan, marginalized, at oppressed. Kaya naman ang next question ay anu-ano ang mga karanansan ng mga katutubong kababaihan sa aspetong ito?
pero dito sa loob ng barmm walang umiiral na karapatan ang mga ip
bilang isang erumanen ne menuvu ay kami po ang nagdadala ng kultura at namumuhay ng payapa sa loob ng aming ancestral doman. kami po ang tagapangalaga ng ating kalikasan subalit ang pamumuhay po namin ay hindi po tugma sa nakasanayan naming pamumuhay kasi marami pong pag sisiil sa aming karapatan na aming naranasan.
pero dito sa loob ng barmm walang umiiral na karapatan ang mga ip
Maaari niyo po ba itong palawigin Ms @Rachel Tahay ?
Hindi po ako katutubo. Ako po ay isang Tagalog mula sa Maynila. Pero bilang LILAK, at isang IP rights advocate, mahaba na rin po ang aking pakikipag ugnayan at pakikipagtrabaho sa mga IP. Gusto ko yung sinabi ni Elaine na “diverse and rich”. Totoo na sila ay “oppressed” “suppressed” . Sa aking pakikisalamuha sa kanila - sila rin ay empowered, creative at nurturing - sa kalikasan, sa komunidad.
hindi po kami isang sector kasi kami po ay mga taong katutubo. pwede po kaming tawaging katutubo.
hindi po kami isang sector kasi kami po ay mga taong katutubo. pwede po kaming tawaging katutubo.
Salamat po sa paglilinaw!
kahit na kami po ay diverse sa aming mga kultura subalit may mga common issues po kaming mga katutubong hinaharap kagaya ng: Ancestral Domain na ipinagkait sa aming mga katutubo ang pagmamahala at pagkikilala dahil hindi po inaayunan o sinang-ayunan ng ibang ahensya ng gobyerno ang aming CADT na binigay ng NCIP.
Dagdagan ko lang yang kay @Elmalyn Abatayo - bilang indigenous people, or indigenous community, ito ay kinapapalooban din ng iba't ibang sektor - tulad ng magsasaska, mangingisda, OFWs.
inaasert ng katutubo ang karapatan nila ay hindi ito pinapansin sa barmm.
Salamat po Elmalyn sa paglilinaw tungkol sa pag-gamit ng "sektor" para sa mga katutubong komunidad. Isa lamang 'yan sa mga misconception tungkol sa mga katutubo.
Bilang indigenous women human rights defenders, ano ang napapansin ninyo na common misconceptions tungkol sa indigenous women na nagsasalita tungkol sa kanilang karapatan?
kahit na kami po ay diverse sa aming mga kultura subalit may mga common issues po kaming mga katutubong hinaharap kagaya ng: Ancestral Domain na ipinagkait sa aming mga katutubo ang pagmamahala at pagkikilala dahil hindi po inaayunan o sinang-ayunan ng ibang ahensya ng gobyerno ang aming CADT na binigay ng NCIP.
may mga misconception po tungkol sa aming mga katutubong kababaihan na nagsasalita tungkol sa aming karapatan. kami po ay tinaguriang mga kaliwa ng ibang mga tao. hindi po kami maka kaliwa kami po kusang nag lalabas ng aming mga hinaing at karanasan para malalamann ng madla na may mga katutubong sinisikil na sa liblib na komunidad. bilang isang ina karapatan ko pang mapalabas lang aming hinaing na nangngailangan ng tugon para sa mga sumusunod na henerasyon.
Ang madalas na maririnig ngayon ay ang mga indigenous women na vocal sa kanilang pag-assert ng kanilang karapatan ay kadalasang inaakusahan na miyembro ng rebel or terrorist groups. Kundi man miyembro, ay napag-uutusan ng mga rebel or terrorist groups. Sa ganitong pag-iisip, inaalisan nila ng agency ang mga indigenous women; tinuturing nila na walang sariling disposisyon, kaalaman sa kanilang karapatan, at kakayanang kumilos para sa kanilang sariling interest.
ang mga misconceptions ay mga iniisip ng ibang mga tao na palibhasa may mga meetings o pagtitipon kami ng mga katutubong kababaihan ay iniisip nila kami ay may mga gawaing labag sa gobyerno.

Ito nga rin po ang kadalasan din talagang naririnig tungkol sa mga katutubo at gayundin sa iba pa nating environmental defenders. Isa itong porma ng manipulasyon para ma-demonize at bawasan ang kredibilidad ng mga katutubo sa tuwing sila ay naglalabas ng kanilang mga hinaing. Ang manipulasyong ito ay isa ring porma ng disimpormasyon dahil apektado dito ang welfare ng mga katutubo, at ang persepsyon/opinyon ng mga tao tungkol sa komunidad :(
NPA lumalaban sa gubyerno kadalasan ang sinasabi nila kapag nagsasa Lita ka sa karapatan mo bilang ip.
Paano kaya nagkaroon ng ganitong klaseng misconceptions?
Malaki ang papel ng gobyerno at ng state forces sa ganitong pagpapalakas ng perception o misconception. Lalo na nung panahon ng dating Presidente na si Duterte. Persistent ang kanilang pag red tag sa mga indigenous peoples. Persistent and concerted ag red tagging. Magmula sa presidente, hanggang sa NTF ELCAC, at mismong NCIP.
may mga misconception na nangyari dahil sirado po ang pag-iisip ng iba tungkol sa aming mga katutubo. hindi po nila kami matanggap na marunong din kaming mag-isip at magbigay ng aming mga adhikain tungkol sa aming mga karanasan.
Itong slide na ito ay mula sa isang presentation ng military, kung saan sinasabi nila na ang mga lupaing ninuno ay lungga ng mga rebelde.
Ang statistics na ito ay ginamit ni Sen. Imee Marcos, at ginamit din ng NCIP, at nung huling SONA, ni Duterte. Saan nila kaya nakuha ang bilang na ito? May ID ba ang mga NPA na may indigenous community identifier?
Malinaw na ito ay bahagi ng kanilang disinformation tungkol sa mga IPs.
Gayon din ang NCIP, maalala nyo na maski ang paggamit ng salitang LUMAD, ay ginawan nila ng kwento na ito daw ay katawagang ni-coin ng mga NPA. Maya-maya, pati na rin ang katawagang Tumandok. Samantalang ito ay mga katawagang ginagamit ng mga katutubo para sa kanilang kolektibong pagkakakilanlan - ang Lumad para sa mga katutubong taga Mindanao, at ang Tumandok para sa mga nakatira sa Panay.
Salamat po sa visuals na ito Ms @judy p / LILAK! Nakakagalit na nakakalabas ang mga ganitong false claims at misconceptions hanggang sa media outlets
kapag nagsalita para iyong karapatan at anong katotohan at may natatamaan na ayaw sa nais ng mga katutubo
Magandang Hapon sa lahat, Ako si Mariane Llabe taga Cagayan de Oro City. Para sa akin ang Indigenous Communities ay dapat nating pangalagaan sa pamamagitan ng pagpapalaganap ng impormasyon para sa kanilang mga rights.
Kung vice versa naman po ang pag-uusapan, curious din ako sa mga kasamahan nating katutubo dito kung saan at paano kayo nakakakuha ng balita lalo pa't limitado ang social media at signal sa kanayunan?
ang mga balita po ay nakukuha namin sa pakipagsalamuha sa mga kapwa naming lider na katutubo. may regular po kasi kaming pagtitipon at doon namin pinapakinggan ang mga karanasan ng mga lider sa iba't ibang Ancestral Domain.
yes Yun ang kadalasang mangyari sa mga katutubo walang kongkretong impormasyon lalo pat sila ang biktima sa pangyayari
kapag nagsalita para iyong karapatan at anong katotohan at may natatamaan na ayaw sa nais ng mga katutubo
Ano naman po ang epekto ng ganitong misconceptions sa inyo, @Rachel Tahay @Elmalyn Abatayo at @judy p / LILAK?
ok lang kung ang kung ang problema kung sa loob lang ng tribo ay maayos na mapagusapan
pero kung sa labas na hindi na itu tugma sa totoong nangyayari
malaki ang epekto nitong misconception sa aming mga lider sa tribu kasi dini-degrade ng iba ang katutubo at ang kredibilidad namin.
pero kung sa labas na hindi na itu tugma sa totoong nangyayari
Ano po ang epekto nito sa inyo? @Rachel Tahay
hindi na malayang gumagalaw ang mga leader kc nagkakaroon na ng pag banana sa kanila
hindi na malayang gumagalaw ang mga leader kc nagkakaroon na ng pag banana sa kanila
Nagkakaroon po ng pagbabanta sa mga leader?
Ang ganitong mga misconceptions or disinformation ay hindi nagdudulot ng maganda para sa mga katutubo, particularly ang disinformation tungkol sa kanilang pagiging bahagi ng mga rebeldeng grupo. una - pinalalakas nito ang culture of impunity o ang walang pagpapanagot sa mga karahasan laban sa mga katutubo. Halimbawa na lang - ang notorious na TAMASCO Massacre. Noong 2017, si Datu Victor 70%Danyan, kasama ang 7 pang mga T’boli Manobo farmers ang pinaslang ng 33rd and 27th IB ng AFP. Ang kanilang press release ay nagkaron daw ng clash sa pagitan ng militar at ng NPA. Samantalang ayon sa forensic investigation, at ayon na rin sa mga naiwang pamilya, ay noong umagang yon ng December, ay nasa kani-kanilang mga bukid ang mga T’boli Manobo at si Datu Victor ay nasa kanilang bahay, nang sila ay inisa-isang patayin ng mga militar. Si Datu Victor ay lider ng kanilang komunidad na lagpas isang dekada nang pinaglalaban ang kanilang lupaing ninuno mula sa mga dambuhalang coffee plantation na pinapasok ng DENR. Ang narrative na ang mga Lumad ay 70% ng NPA force ay nagju-justify ng pagpatay sa kanila kapag sila ay nagtutulak ng kanilang karapatan, at umaayaw sa mga proyekto ng mga dambuhalang kompanya. Marami ring nakakaranas ng red tagging bago sila paslangin. Clash between military and the NPA, daw. Lagi’t lagi na lang. Ang ganitong naratibo rin ay tinatakban ang mga legitimate assertions and struggles ng mga katutubo - ayaw sa malaking minahan dahil nakakasira ng kanilang kabuhayan; ayaw sa mono plantations dahil ito ay nakakasira ng kanilang community-based food production - ito ay naisasantabi dahil sila lang daw ay nagagamit ng mga rebelde.

@Rachel Tahay Sa inyo po, paano/saan kayo kadalasan nakakakuha ng impormasyon?
sa amin po, nakakakuha ng impormasyon sa TV,Facebook, radio brgy.earlywarning, personal na tao.
Paano niyo sinisiguradong totoo at tama ang impormasyon na nasasagap niyo? @Elmalyn Abatayo @Rachel Tahay

Sa tingin ko nagiging successful din talaga ang framing ng gobyerno laban sa mga IPs dahil ang automatic na sinasabi sa kanila ay sila ay anti-development na hindi sumasang-ayon sa "progreso." Pero mahalaga rin talagang alalahanin na hindi sa lahat ng pagkakataon ay maituturing na progreso ang komersiyalisasyon lalo pa't apektado dito ang ancestral domains, kabuhayan, at overall welfare ng mga katutubo. Lagi ngang nabanggit ng mga kasamahan nating IPs na ang lupa ay buhay. Kung nasisira naman ang kanilang lupain sa pamamagitan ng mga plantations at minahan, walang progreso. Ito ang gap na hindi natutumbok ng karamihan sa mga Pilipino kaya patuloy na umiiral ang mga misconceptions na ito.
Magandang araw po sa lahat. Ako po si Christy Sasuman bilang estudyante, magiging posible ang isang ligtas na tahanan para sa mga katutubo kung aware ang lahat ng mga tao sa mga karapatan ng mga katutubo at sa tulong ng gobyerno.
ang mga balita po ay nakukuha namin sa pakipagsalamuha sa mga kapwa naming lider na katutubo. may regular po kasi kaming pagtitipon at doon namin pinapakinggan ang mga karanasan ng mga lider sa iba't ibang Ancestral Domain.
Interesting dahil hindi lahat ay aware sa ganitong klase ng information dissemination. Kaya naman kailangan rin talaga natin ng mga citizen journalists sa kanayunan para masigurong nakakapasok ang tamang balita sa komunidad!
lagging
kami Talaga hindi agadagad naniniwala sa mga information hahil minsan yan ang dahilan naloloko kami tulad ng pag gamut sa fpic.
pagamit sa fpic
dagdag ko lang tungkol sa Free Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) ay ang mga ahensay po mismo ang siyang hindi naniniwala na kailangan nilang kukuha ng pahintulot sa mga katutubo kong mga mga poyekto po silang gagawin sa aming Ancestral Domain
Salamat po sa ating speakers sa pagbabahagi sa ating lahat. Mag-send naman po tayo ng purple heart emoji para kina Rachel, Elmalyn, at Judy. 💜
Kaugnay po ng community leaders na nabanggit ni Ms @Elmalyn Abatayo, naalala ko lang din po itong nilabas na article ng Rappler noong 2021 tungkol sa panawagan ng mga katutubo na isama sila sa policy-making at national institutions para akma ang representasyon at pagtugon sa mga pangangailangan ng komunidad. Sa tingin ko ay crucial step din talaga ito para matuwid ang mga maling paratang at ma-address ang umiiral na disinformation laban sa kanila. Tatlong taon na ang nakalilipas pero parang kaunti/mabagal pa rin ang progreso dito: https://www.rappler.com/moveph/indigenous-peoples-advocates-urge-more-representation-national-policies-institutions/

Maraming salamat po sa pagbabahagi ng inyong mga karanasan Ms @Elmalyn Abatayo @Rachel Tahay at @judy p / LILAK!
Malaking issue talaga ang disinformation at fake news, both sa impormasyon na nasasagap ng ating mga katutubong komunidad, at sa impormasyon na pinalalaganap tungkol sa mga katutubo at human rights defenders. Para sa ating lahat, paano kaya natin masisiguradong tama at napapanahon ang impormasyon na nakakarating sa ating mga katutubong komunidad, online at offline?
pagkaroon ng mga contact person mula sa bawat Comunidad.
matindi ang proliferation ng fake news. At kung limitado ang access mo to information, mahirap ang fact checking. Mahalaga na i-push ang government na ayusin ang infrastructure ng communication at information - para democraticize ang access to correct, timely information. Halimbawa na lang ng COVID lockdown experience - kung ano ano ang lumalabas na kwento tungkol sa covid, sa bakuna. Kaya maraming natatakot, ayaw magpabakuna. At dahil wala ring timely information tungkol sa mga ayuda - hindi maka-avail ang mga nasa rural far flung communities. Lack of timely information leads to discrimination.

Bukod pa po dito, dagdag ko rin ay ang pagbukas ng iba pang local media sa kanayunan at syempre ang pagtrain sa mga katutubo natin kung paano magreport ng mga issues na maaaring iugnay sa midya. Oras na rin siguro na magkaroon tayo ng mga mamamahayag mula sa komunidad ng mga IPs!

Tama po! Whole of society approach din ito kaya mahalaga ring may participation mula sa mga LGUs at barangay centers
Paano naman natin masisiguradong nakabatay sa totoong karanasan ng mga katutubong komunidad ang impormasyon at diskurso, online at offline? At na may boses ang mga katutubong kababaihan sa mas malalawak na diskurso, online at offline?
Mahalagang bigyan ng platform talaga ang komunidad upang mabigyang-linaw ang bawat impormasyong lumalaganap at ipinapalaganap. Isa sa hapag na pwedeng maging daan ng paglalapag nitong mga tamang impormasyon ay pagbigay kaalaman sa bawat katutubo paano gawin ang pamamahayag. Empower them as people within the community and let them weave their stories to tell.
dapat po on our own, nage-effort din po tayong i-fact check muna yung nga nakikita nating balita for and about indigenous peoples. tayo na even as ordinary citizens na may easy access sa social media ay makakatulong kung we put our fact-checking efforts to good use. manghikayat ng mga tao na irecognize ang rights ng ating IPs. naniniwala rin po ako na malaki po ang role ng journalists para mas bigyang boses pa po ang mga IPs at bigyan sila ng platform to debunk any misinformation/disinformation against them.
sa aming mga katutubo ay may mga lider po kami na napili bilang tagapag-salita tungkol sa mga pangyayari sa bawat komunidad. sinisigurado po namin na bago ilahad ang mga isyu ay may mga pag-aaral o imbistigasyon munang gagawin. sa social media naman ay tinitingnan namin kung may kredibilidad ba ang taong nagpa labas ng balita o komentaryo.
kami mismo sa tulong ng LILAK ay naging umaluhokan upang tutukan ang mga issue para mailabas ang tutuong nayayari sa community.
ayan, nabanggit na rin po ni @Rachel Tahay Ang LILAK ay sinimulang magbuo ng community journalists o UMALOHOKAN. Ang programang ito ng LILAK ay naglalayong tawirin ang gap ng tamang information at balita tungkol sa mga katutubong kababaihan. May training ng basic journalism sa mga indigenous women, most are young women - pagsusulat, pag iinterview, at pag report, photography - para sila mismo ang magkukwento ng kanilang istorya, magbabato ng balita na sila mismo ang nangalap. Samantala, bukas ang LILAK na mag facilitate ng conversation, interview or discussion with indigenous women partners na maaring maging source ng accurate information tungkol sa mga issues at kalagayan nila, at mga ginagawang pakikibaka para sa kanilang karapatan.

ang Umaluhokan po ang mga tagapagbalita namin na nagmumula sa ibat-ibang tribu ng komunidad na siyang nagbibigay ng mga balitang may katotohanan at pinapaniwalaan namin.

sa amin pong karanasan, may inherent power ang mga indigenous communities - lalo na ang mga kababaihan. kaya nga lang, sa ating kasaysayan, ang power na ito, tulad nang nabanggit kanina sa umpisa, ấy na-suppress. so tingin namin, ang ating gawain ay tulad ng banggit ni @Jericko - gumawa ng iba't ibang platform tulad nito, para mas maipahayag ang kanilang mga sarili, at sila mismo maramdaman ang power within to speak, with courage, with confidence.

Ang statistics na ito ay ginamit ni Sen. Imee Marcos, at ginamit din ng NCIP, at nung huling SONA, ni Duterte. Saan nila kaya nakuha ang bilang na ito? May ID ba ang mga NPA na may indigenous community identifier?
I agree. How would they know that "Lumad accounts for 70% of NPA's fighting force"? I believe that they do not have ID cards. But I had the opportunity to talk to a former NPA rebel who was a LUMAD, too. I asked him why he joined the NPA. He answered that their Datu did not take care of them anymore after the "commercialization" of their Ancestral Domain. The latter preferred to avoid them and enjoy the wealth from such commercialization alone.
