Who they are
The Mansaka are an indigenous people originating in the mountains and valleys of Mindanao, in the southern Philippines. Preserving rich oral traditions, intricate embroidery, and a strong attachment to their ancestral lands, they maintain a communal way of life deeply connected to the region’s rivers and forests, where reverence for ancestors and nature spirits shapes everyday life.
