Advancing Tripeople Culture, Mindanao History, Peace and
Development in the coalition pushed
In June, MINCODE was granted an initial fund by the German
Technical Cooperation (GTZ) to conduct a three-month needs
assessment on the promotion of tri-people culture, Mindanao history,
peace and development among its members. The project has
randomly identified 113 member organizations (from its 11 member
networks) all over Mindanao as respondents to the project.
The project seeks to find out level of implementation and integration
of tri-people culture, Mindanao history, peace and development in the
conduct of day-to-day operations and in the implementation of the
projects. The project will be conducted in three phases: survey, focus
group discussions and key informant interviews.
The project has identified a research consultant in the person of Ms.
Rosena Sanchez, Chairperson, University Research and Publication
Committee, Ateneo de Davao University, Davao City.
The result of this project will be the basis of a more long-term
engagement with the German Technical Cooperation (GTZ).
The project is currently administered by Mr. Dondon Clamor. The
project is expected to conclude on September.

professor and one of the research fellows and
scholars of MINCODE’s Mindanao History Project,
authored it. The book was the second of the series of
publication on Mindanao history.
The Mindanao History Project was an advocacy
initiative of the Coalition. It started with MINCODE
commissioned a pool of research fellows and
scholars to undertake a historical study on Mindanao
in mid-1999 to 2003. Several writings were produced
and covered the history of major areas in Mindanao
such as Davao, Bukidnon, Caraga Region,
Zamboanga Peninsula and Cotabato. The first book
on Mindanao history was published in 2003. It was
authored by Prof. Rody Rodil and entitled “A Story of
Mindanao and Sulu: In Question and Answer”
MINCODE believes that in writing Mindanao History it
enables to:
- Help unify the peoples of Mindanao who have
diverse ad oftentimes conflicting interests;
- Assist in the identification and appreciation of the
diversity among these peoples;
- Facilitate in the discovery of their commonalities so
that there could be “unity in diversity”; and
- Help push the development of a home-grown
Mindanao identity.
