Who they are
The Ayta of Bataan are an indigenous community originating from the Bataan Peninsula on the island of Luzon, in the Philippines. Guardians of a rich cultural heritage tied to the mountain forests, they preserve their identity and the Magbukun language. Facing urban expansion onto their traditional lands, the people seek to keep their roots alive while striving for dignity and livelihood.
