This is an output showing how indigenous knowledge is expressed through social media advocacy approach. Indigenization strategies are widely used to show the importance of indigenous culture to some aspects especially in spreading awareness about it. This presentation also features some indigenous culture in the Philippines.

This study was carried out in Virunga national park (ViNP) of the Demographic Republic of Congo. The study had as objective to contribute to the sustainable management of the Virunga national park. The study area was made up of four (4) administrative territories (Masis, Goma, Nyiragonga and Rutshur); these territories are found in the North KivProvence of the democratize Republic of Congo.Data was collected through the administration of 394 structured questionnaires to household heads residing around the peripheries of the Virunga national park. The data was imputed into a Microsoft excel sheet 2016 and was analysis using an SPSS version 21 statistical package. The results revealed that majority of respondents were youths 86% with ages below 61years. On the question; on the collaboration between local population and park management, the results showed that 76.4% of respondents had no form of collaboration with park management. The results also revealed that majority of respondents do not participate in the management of the ViNP. The presence park governance is highly contested by the local communities and should be revise to incorporate the concerns of the local population. To revive the lost trust and improve the relationship between the local populations living around the park and the management of the park; locals populations should participate in the management of the national park; benefit from park resources should be share and alternative income activities be created to prevent youths from relying on the park resources as a livelihood source.

Vean is a tool used to catch fish in traditional way in Ohoi Disuk, Kei Island, in Southeast Maluku. This study aims to examine vean tradition as a local wisdom of customary people that has been inherited from generation to generation. This research uses qualitative method applying descriptive analytical approach. The number of respondents is 10 people. The results show that the construction of vean resembles the human body, which implies that humans must move their limbs to work in order to meet the life needs. In addition, vean (sero) can also build relationship between the sea and humans as keepers and connoisseurs of nature. Vean has three main motivations, namely economic aspect to create quality of life, social aspect to develop a sense of justice without expecting anything in return, and ecological aspect for the conservation of ecosystems and marine life. On the other hand, vean has very meaningful values to maintain kinship and brotherhood in building social relations, creating a good social harmony. Based on the perspective, motivation, and values contained in vean, this local wisdom can be used as a way to strengthen maritime culture in history learning because it comes from the culture of local community as a source of learning.
Biodiversity Exploitation for Traditional Healthcare Delivery in Montane Fore...AI Publications
Biodiversity exploitation in montane highlands remain an important source of raw materials for traditional healthcare delivery, survival and sustenance of the population in communities that are reliant thereof. Belo and Njinikom Sub-Divisions on the fringes of the Ijim Montane forest stronghold are rich in biodiversity resources though under degradation. The exploitation of the biodiversity have thrived a spectre of traditional healing practices hatched by indigenous knowledge. The edgy perception of being socially irrelevant, illusory and ill-suited by the state and modern hospitals are sullying this practice. This study was based on the premise that traditional healing practices are the major ways in which biodiversity is exploited and used for traditional healthcare provision. The methodology uses correlational and comparative research designs of field investigations. Purposive random sampling technique was used to administer 250 questionnaires to selected key respondents from the entire population. Findings reveal that the practice of traditional healing is enshrined in the mysteries of indigenous knowledge which is methodical in concoctions, decoctions, injections, ritual practices and incantations, which to an extent have bestowed effective healthcare to contemporary communities through resources they find it hard to stay aloof. This study posits that if the state, modern hospitals and tradi-practitioners holistically find common ground through collaborative agreements, such issuant and commonplace signatures would continue to support the current shady healthcare tragedy. It shall provide the communities with solutions to some indigenous diseases still portraying dreadful hallmarks and being a nuisance to the population where general welfare of all and sundry ought to be esteemed and primeval.

The Existence of Coastal Community Culture during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Si...AI Publications
The profile of coastal communities in various places in Indonesia is always described by showing their distinctive characteristics, such as poor villages, low formal education, lack of human resources, poor residential and health conditions, and lack of access to the use of socio-economic facilities and infrastructure. financial institutions (cooperatives, banks), transportation and communication, and other physical. This profile looks inversely proportional to the socio-economic potential of coastal resources. This study aims to see and reveal the cultural existence of coastal communities during the Covid-19 pandemic in Sinonsayang District, South Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi Province. The method used is descriptive method. Data collection was carried out by direct observation of the object that became the research objective, then interviews were carried out using the help of a questionnaire. Based on the results of research conducted on the Cultural Existence of Coastal Communities in the Covid-19 Pandemic Period in Sinonsayang District (Aergale Village and Blongko Village), it shows that culture according to the gender system is not concerned with the division of its roles in activities on land and activities at sea. Fishermen and fishermen's wives will help each other voluntarily. According to patron-client culture, it occurs because of the urgent economic interests between traditional fishermen and fisherman bosses, while socially there is harmony between communities when someone is sick and when they are sad. Local culture in the exploitation of fishery resources still uses the calculation of the moon in the sky and the distribution of fishing seasons according to the way of fishermen from the Sangihe area. Culture according to social leadership is known to have two, namely the existence of religious leaders and community leaders, each of which has a role to lead and protect the community. In this time of the covid-19 pandemic, all of the above cultures continue to do as they have been from the past, only the culture of coastal communities which usually have to involve many people with large expenditures, is currently not being implemented.

Abstract: Agritourism is composed of different structures such as farm, recreational facilities, educational
purposes, and farm-based products that gives opportunity for the farm to market and increase the economic state
of Agri farm tourism industry that allows them to execute knowledge to younger generations. The perception of
300 college students of Junior Tourism and Hospitality Management Association of the Philippines (JTHMAP) has
a significant role, and it can help the farms in Cavite to establish solutions and ways to improve this sector in
tourism industry. It raises awareness to the college students on how significant the agritourism is in our economy,
their interest as well. To establish the perception, awareness, and engagement of the college students the
researcher utilizes survey questionnaires in identifying their level of understanding to formulate a cohesive
recommendations and suggestions. The result of the study suggests that the demographic profile of the respondents
has a significant difference in awareness towards agritourism wherein ages 20 and above, first year college
students and most of the students who are single have a ninety-six-point-seven percent (96.7%) cumulative value
which means are aware of agritourism; respondents perceive regarding Farm Resort, Products, Tourism,
Educational purposes, Recreation, Economical state and Sources of information results to Strongly agree and
concluded that there is a significant difference. Succeeding research studies including the branches of agritourism,
advertising it in the market as well as study about farmers should be created to raise attention, solution, and
awareness to the existing problems in agricultural industry

Environmental Education is facing new challenges. Despite significant achievements, from institutional agencies and others, it must be strengthened and project its expansion, thereby eliminating the slow bureaucratic aspects, creating new strategies of action, further opening of the social agencies and pursuing broader international commitments. Deepening in Environmental Education is the surest path to planetary transformation and survival of the human race.
Conservation, land rights and livelihoods in north kenyaGian Paolo Pezzi
In the last 15 years, NGOs and other civil society conservation groups have aggressively pursued efforts to bring important wildlife habitats in Northern Kenya under some sort of conservation management in an effort to protect the wildlife populations, while also creating income generating opportunities from conservation. These efforts have targeted wildlife habitatsthat lie outside the Government protected areas, namely parks and reserves. The term ‘community-based conservation’ is used for the in-situ governance structures that are created to implement these conservation initiatives.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Indigenization strategies-virtual-report
1.
2. Indigenous Knowledge
• “understandings, skills
and philosophies
developed by societies
with long histories of
interaction with their
natural surroundings”
(UNESCO, n.d.)
3. How the Indigenous Knowledge,
System, and Practices (IKSP)
transfer?
Thru songs poems, chants, and stories.
4. Elders of indigenous groups convey knowledge to
their younger generations through storytelling.
5. Generation upon generation, we create these systems, build
on them, and reconstruct them to our daily advantage.
6. Through this development, cumulative local and indigenous
knowledge “informs decision-making about fundamental aspects
of day-to-day life” (UNESCO, n.d.) and provides a “foundation for
locally-appropriate sustainable development” (UNESCO, n.d.).
These day-to-day aspects of life include agriculture, aquaculture,
health care, natural resources management, and other activities
(Calanog, 1997).
8. Indigenization Strategies &
Environmental Advocacy
• Gaining mass support through social media
• With the advent of technology, social media has
contributed greatly to information dissemination and
influencing society’s beliefs and actions.
9. Librero and Canonizado (2000) talk about the
operationalization of concientization, a framework of
empathizing with the less educated, through music
(concienti-cancion), theater (concienti-accion), and video
(concienti-vision). Deer (2019) agrees that modern media
allows us to do this.
11. Mari-it from Panay
• Mari-it is a concept present in both coastal and upland
environments, which restricts the extraction of marine
resources in sacred areas. This contributes to sustainable
development because it ensures the availability of fishes
for future generations.
12. • One mari-it belief is the existence of sacred trees, such as
balete and bakhaw (mangrove). Indigenous groups in
Panay believe that these trees are home to spirits and
should not be cut or disturbed.
Mari-it from Panay
13. • The fish they catch depends on the spirits. If the spirits are
happy, they will provide a good catch. If the spirits have
been angered because of a violation of mari-it, the
fishermen will be punished with less fish to catch and they
may be endangered at sea.
Mari-it from Panay
14. • The deep-sea provides sanctuaries to marine life and
mangroves serve as a nursery for fishes and other marine
organisms. By restricting its use or exploitation, marine life
will thrive, thus providing sustainable fish supply to the
community.
• In recent extreme cases, mari-it is less considered by fishermen
due to the pressure of consumerism, urbanization, technological
advancement, and poverty.
Mari-it from Panay
15. Muyung from Ifugao
• Muyung (sometimes spelled muyong and also referred to
as pinugo) is a traditional mode of private forest
management unique to the people of Ifugao, one of the
main ethnolinguistic groups in the Cordillera
Administrative Region (CAR) (Sumeg-ang, 2005).
16. Muyung from Ifugao
• A video produced by Kadioan Inc. shows how the Ifugao
principles and daily activities are linked to their land the
environment through the muyung. The muyung is a source
of food, fuel, lumber, and so much more for the typical
Ifugao household. Not only that, but it is also a
preventative measure against soil erosion (The Pinugo or
Muyong System of Ifugao, 2016).
17. • In an Inquirer report, Cinco (2013) says that “a solution to
the looming water shortage appears to have already been
available several decades ago, right before our eyes.” She
is referring to the muyung, which is a forest management
strategy recognized worldwide as a “technological
innovation”.
Muyung from Ifugao
19. The concept of this project is to strengthen the
indigenous concepts mentioned above by maximizing the
power of social media. The project consists of three
stages: (1) documentation of practices and validation; (2)
development of social media communication plans; and
(3) implementation and evaluation.
20. There are many social media websites and applications available nowadays.
However, this project will utilize two popular social media apps: Facebook and
Twitter.
According to the Search Engine Journal, Facebook and Twitter are two of the
biggest social media sites in 2019. They stand at first and second place,
respectively (Kellogg, 2019).
Documentation of
practices and
validation
Development of
contextualized
communication plan
Implementation and
evaluation
21. Using Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threats (SWOT), we can
assess and carefully plan on strategizing the approach. Below is the
simplified SWOT analysis of the project.
22. Conclusions
• Mari-it has already been proven to promote environmental
protection and social media champions information
dissemination.
• The Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) Baguio
chapter, currently headed by Rev. Atty. Matias C. Angiwan
Jr., an Ifugao man, has incorporated the concept of
muyung into their organization’s activities. Every month,
they visit and clean their muyung as part of their
community program. What we can glean from this is that
the muyung can be incorporated by organizations, and
probably even the government if it so pleases. Through
various forms of social media, it is possible to educate
more people about the system, learn how it can be
incorporated on a larger scale, and possibly implement it
with the cooperation of local communities, researchers,
and local government units.
• Based on the presented approach and SWOT analysis,
promoting and advocating for the aforementioned
