    Introduction

    Tuklas Katutubo (National Organization of Indigenous Peoples in the


    Philippines) is a volunteer tribal association made out of professionals,
    teachers, farmers, health workers, fisher folks and community leaders working
    together for the protection and promotion of peace, rights, welfare and
    development of the indigenous peoples in the Philippines. Tuklas means
    discovery, and Katutubo means indigenous. It was funded in 1998 in response
    to the lack of recognition and representation of the indigenous peoples in the
    Philippines, especially on the issues of peace and development. It recognizes
    that misrepresentation leads to poverty and conflict. (Insights on Conflict,
    2016).

    Tuklas Katutubo has been recognized by local, national and international


    institutions as one of the leading organizations helping to build a systematic
    and sustainable indigenous community in the fields of education, peace and
    development, ancestral domain and environmental protection, health,
    livelihood, agriculture and empowerment. The following are their three main
    programmes:

     Tuklas Katutubo's signature programme is the Balik-Tribo Programme


    (Return to Tribe). This way, communities will not be pushed to further
    poverty which could result in more conflict.
     The National Indigenous Peoples Summit - another project of Tuklas
    Katutubo's - is an event to address national peace and development
    issues affecting indigenous peoples. The Summit is a gathering of all
    tribes in the Philippines, including the Muslim tribes.
     IPeace (IPs) is another strategy of Tuklas Katutubo's to partner with
    various organisations to further represent the indigenous peoples in any
    peace activities in the Philippines, especially in Mindanao. The
    organisation partners with universities and other peace organisations to
    educate other sectors on the IPs call for peace, development and
    representation.

    This organization conducts these programs to attain the following


    objectives:

     To empower the local community to help themselves in the aspects of


    livelihoods, education, health and environmental protection
     To address national peace and development issues affecting indigenous
    people
     To augment the voices of the indigenous peoples in the country

    Tuklas Katutubo have sufficient funding for their programmes by


    partnering with other private institutions such as Asian Religions for Peace
    Network, Asian American Initative, Peacetech, Peacemakers Circle, Metrobank
    Foundation, Splash Foundation, Department of National Defence, Body Shop
    Foundation. Also, they are equipped with an array of knowledge and practical
    experiences about the indigenous communities in the Philippines and its
    members have one common denominator of perspective that is to provide a
    better and adequate living environment for the indigenous people. Currently,
    the organization has successfully reached 20,000 members nationwide with 67
    chapters in different tribes and regions (Insight on Conflict, 2016).
