This monograph is one of APCEIU's EIU Best Practices Series, which aims to encourage educators, scholars, and activists to implement and share local initiatives on EIU. The Series No.19 introduces the Pumulaan program, a successful culture-based education programme for indigenous children and youth in the Philippines. The program is similar to that of Tugdaan, a widely recognized education program that promote learning for the Indigenous people. The Pumulaan program focuses on providing culturally sensitive, appropriate, and relevant education to students in Mangyan Tribe in Mindoro and the Matigsalog Tribe in Mindanao, incorporating values of peace, harmony, and diversity within the education programs.
