Day 10 of 100 Happy Days
Two of the pastors in the community that we are wanting to work with in Davao City came today and brought the news that the IP representatives in their respective areas are going to support our organization's presence in their community!
This means they will certify our organization, giving us their free, prior informed consent (required under the Philippine's Indigenous People's Law). This is very happy news as we have been trying to get this certification for almost two years now! We can finally go to the National Commission on Indigenous People (NCIP) and say, "The locals have welcomed us!"
