Manide Tribe
The Manide Tribe is a Negrito Filipino community in Barangay Osmeña, Jose Panganiban, Camarines Norte, locally called Agta by Bicolanos. Manide is the term for their language.
DA-ATI Bicol's Center Director, Ms. Elsa Parot, in her message for the attendees, said the training is the start of ATI's interventions for the community. Their farm is also projected to become a Learning Site for Agriculture (LSA).
"Kabihug" as the natives of Jose Panganiban, Camarines Norte used to call it which means "slave". Today, they call themselves "manide." They want to showcase their unique talent in creating paintings and attractions that tourists will return to in their community.
The Manide are an Indigenous minority who live in Camarines Norte, a province located in the Bicol Region of Luzon, Philippines. Though many young Manide now speak Tagalog, the main language of the Philippines, Manide elders speak their own, unique language.
Through a holistic development project which secures income, improves education and improves the access of Manide people to goods and services, Caritas Australia is empowering this unique Filipino community to create a better future for themselves.
