| | Why the Cordillera |
 | | People who have the pride that no lowlander has the right to claim, the pride of being free while the rest of the Philippines was under the colonial rule of the Spanish. |
 | | Ibaloi, Kankanai, Kalanguya, Iwac, Ifugao, Bontoc, Kalinga, Tinguian among these groups we find the people who have kept these mountains safe for centuries, Our homes are seemingly under siege, “development” has claimed the homes of many communities. |
 | | The Cordillera being home to the bounties of the earth have provided life for generations, yet today people seek to destroy that which has given us life. |
