Philippines Project

Tri-People Educational Tour - Philippines
From 21st-28th April, 2003, twenty-four young adults took part in a spiritual tour that also included leadership training and teambuilding. Participants included representatives of ten tribes of Indigenous People, four major tribes of Muslims from Mindanao, Christians from the Visayas, and another Indigenous young adult from Luzon in the north. These young people visited sites of spiritual interest and gained a deeper understanding of each other's belief traditions. The outcomes of this tour are very promising. Three young adults from each island were elected together with a young adult coordinator, with the aim of encouraging further collaborative projects. The IARF funded this project and it involved an International Council member and two of the organisation's regional coordinators in the Philippines.
