We need a place where Siargaonons can gather, learn, and celebrate our heritage.

The first Indigenous-led Cultural Centre will protect what makes our island unique —
our stories, our language, our way of life.

Let’s build this together.
Comment ‘SIPA KITA’ if you believe Siargao deserves its own Cultural Centre.”

Long before tourism, there was trade. The sea linked Siargao to the rest of Mindanao and beyond.

What stories have your elders shared about those times?

Culture is not just our past — it’s our power. 🌱

As Siargao grows, our traditions, stories, and language guide how we move forward.

We welcome progress without letting go of who we are.

Join us in keeping Siargaonon identity alive.

Doyuk-doyuk — a native hardwood once part of Siargao’s forests.

Strong. Slow-growing. Made to last.

Would you grow a doyuk-doyuk kahoy?

Siargao’s tuba is loved by all - whether as tonic, social beverage or s**a - but is this cultural gem disappearing?

"Amin" is more than a habit — it's how we carry respect in our bodies. Every hand we bless is a reminder: we still know where we come from.

A story from Siargao to be shared, this is where we come from.

Upang patuloy na mapanatiling buhay at aktibong naipapasa sa susunod na henerasyon ang ating mga buhay na tradisyon, isinulong natin ang Senate Bill No. 1507 na nag-iinstitutionalize sa Schools of Living Traditions (SLT), at ngayong araw ay ipinasa ito ng Senado sa Third at Final Reading.

Bilang Principal Author at Principal Sponsor, isinusulong natin ang pagkilala at suporta sa cultural masters at pamayanang tagapangalaga ng kultura upang mapanatili ang mga kasanayan, wika, ritwal, at tradisyunal na kabuhayan na bumubuo sa ating pambansang pagkakakilanlan.
