International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples
United Nations in the Philippines: Exhibit on initiatives and partnerships with indigenous peoples: Brochure
In celebration of the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples 2011, the ILO Country Office for the Philippines as the lead agency on the United Nations Technical Working Group on Indigenous Peoples has initiated the UN IP photo exhibit.
Through the ILO's indigenous peoples development programme with the support of the Government of Spain, indigenous peoples now produce organic flour from palm sago trees. They have developed market link with a large factory in Davao, which buys the organic flour to make ice cream cones.
