Julie Grace K. Mi-ing

Abstract


This study explores the praxis of Indigenous Peoples Education in Mountain Province, Philippines. The data were gathered through profiling. Likewise, interviews and Focus Group Discussions with selected IPEd experts and advocates; and, analysis of the secondary sources such as documents, reports, and pertinent provisions of the schools and line agencies in their conduct of IPEd were undertaken. The data shows that there is a strong adherence towards cultural preservation in the basic and higher education institutions, and government agencies. There have been implementation of various cultural development platforms with set mandates and organizational structures of IPEd aligned to their respective thrusts and mandates. The learning of culture is strengthened in various formal education spheres. The communities’ cultural ideals complement the learning content of modern education.
