Indegenious Land Rights

Indegenious Land Rights are the rights of indigenous peoples to land and resource-related, either individually or collectively. Through laws, the state recognizes self-governance, ancestral domain and natural resources within ancestral domains.  They are mainly concentrated in Northern Luzon (Cordillera Administrative Region, 33%) and Mindanao (61%), with some groups in the Visayas area.
