Cultural Influence Intangible cultural heritage, often known as living heritage, is crucial to preserving cultural diversity despite its fragility. The cultural influence we receive from the past, live within the present, and pass on to the next generation is what we refer to as heritage. Cultural heritage includes more than just tangible cultural heritage such as architectural buildings and artifact collections. It also consists of living expressions that we have received from our ancestors, such as performing arts, oral traditions, social customs, rituals, holiday celebrations, knowledge and practices pertaining to nature and the cosmos, as well as information and skills relating to traditional trades.
The natural history and cultural heritage of a place are priceless and unique. Security of cultural heritage depends on consistency. It contains historical and culturally significant landmarks, old buildings, temples, and cultural attractions which are sights that definitely should be seen. Morals, beliefs, and values are The United Nations Educational, Scientific embodied in culture and its history. and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) They help define a place's identity. To maintain this identity, it is critical to aims to support the discovery, protection, and preservation of the world's natural and preserve our cultural legacy. cultural treasures which are thought to be of great significance to humanity.
We are aware that the word \"cultural heritage\" is extremely ambiguous. There are various SDGs that we can link with cultural heritage conservation, protection, and promotion. Such as Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG #8). Carefully managed cultural heritage draws investment in tourism in a sustainable manner, including local communities without compromising heritage areas. Reduced Inequalities (SDG #10) Strengthening trade in cultural goods and services gives local and national markets a boost, which in turn encourages local production and job prospects for decent work. There is a clear connection between culture and climate action (SDG #13). Many traditional jobs and crafts rely on local expertise in managing ecosystems, harvesting natural resources, and using local resources since many of them involve less technology, energy, and money, they support the creation of sustainable lives and green economies.
Cultural It is the cultural legacy we Heritage inherited from the past, which we are responsible for protecting and preserving in the present for the benefit of future generations. It is classified into two main categories: tangible heritage (moveable and immovable type) and intangible heritage. The table below shows each classification with corresponding examples.

Puerto Princesa SUBTERRANEAN RIVER NATIONAL PARK SAINT PAUL MOUNTAIN RANGE, PALAWAN
History THE HISTORY OF THE ST. PAUL SUBTERRANEAN RIVER While exploring the Palawan coast in 1850, Commander Bates of the English navy came across the underground river. He gave it the name St. Paul because he compared it to London's dome-shaped St. Paul Cathedral. The underground river is referred to as \"Natuturingan Cave\" by the local Batak tribe. They were unable to enter the cave's depths due to their fear of the spirits and animals that lived there. The St. Paul Subterranean River National Park (SPSRNP), which is 81 kilometers from Puerto Princesa City proper on the west coast of the expansive island of Palawan, was established on March 26, 1971, thanks to Presidential Decree (P.D.) 835, in order to preserve its distinctive and cultural features. The President of the Philippines signed Proclamation No. 212 on November 12, 1999, renaming the St. Paul Subterranean River National Park to Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park (PPSRNP) and increasing its size from 3,901 hectares to 22,203 hectares.
Importance The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, also known as the Underground River is the most well-known attraction in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature. It contains outstanding biodiversity with the Palawan Moist Forest recognized by the WWF’s Global Report as containing the richest tree flora, with high levels of regional and local endemism and as being the largest and most valuable limestone forest in Asia.
Conditions The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is actually in a very excellent condition. Effective site protection is provided at the local rather than national level through agreements that place legal ownership with the City Government of Puerto Princesa. The local ownership structure ensures that the property's national values are upheld even when local management viewpoints change. The National Integrated Protected Area System (NIPAS) Act of 1992, which guarantees the legal protection and conservation of protected areas in the Philippines, also applies to the property. Nevertheless, some of the ongoing land use and tourism development activities carried out within the catchment are incompatible with the preservation of biodiversity values and are resulting in tangible harm. Related to these changes are issues with land claims and illegal land sales and development. Being in great condition paired with good maintenance, there is not much ideas or proposals regarding about improving its situation right now. However, as mentioned earlier, there are still factors to improve on. Maybe with a better management or implementation of laws regarding the man- made damage that are taken by the subterranean park.

BATANES /ba-ta-nes/ SSAAVVIITTUUGG The Savidug village's dwellings are thought to be of the Sinadumparan type, a sort of traditional Batanes home. The low buildings of Batanes, with their hefty stone walls topped with thick thatched roofs, are unique to the country of the Philippines. They are built of cobblestones and mortar and have two sloped roofs composed of numerous layers of cogon grass covered with fishing nets or bamboo trellis. They are the result of the region's extreme weather, which includes earthquakes, hot, muggy summers, heavy monsoon rains, and strong typhoons. Since Batanes is a remote and isolated island in the Philippines, telecommunication companies could reach out to the LGU to have better reception for calls. Knowing this, usually there are cases in which brownouts happen from time to time.
The Ivatans The ones who are responsible for the protection of savidug are the Ivatans which are the indigenous group being sheltered by these houses. The Ivatans also make sure that their culture is preserved. Ivatans are known for their trustworthiness and honesty, but it does not stop there. Ivatans are also known for their huge respect towards their culture. They exert effort to preserve their cultural heritage like showcasing their tradition of building houses made of thick limestone walls that can withstand any strong typhoon. And until today, women of their kind still wears their traditional headdress that are called Vaculs. Also, Engineer Telesforo Castillejos, a former governor who is now the director of the Batanes Cultural Travel Agency (BCTA), a privately owned organization that seeks to promote Batanes' cultural heritage,tell us the opportunities and challenges the province faces and, in doing so, contributes to defining what makes it unique.

THE HUDHUD CHANTS IFUGAO By San Beda University - Rizal Students of 12-STEM 4 UCSP Group 4 “From Generation to Generation” Cultural heritage is the collection of knowledge and objects from human history that were generated by people in a variety of professions. Oral legacy, performing arts, social activities, rituals, celebratory events, and traditional music are examples of intangible cultural heritage practices and representations. Buildings, monuments, works of art, artifacts, and other evidence of human activity are examples of tangible cultural heritage. These are the products of human creativity, and their preservation is an important goal of humankind. One of the most important aspects of modern living is heritage, which has an influence on all aspects of people's lives. In the 'heritage' industry, irreplaceable historical sites are preserved, but more often than not, big businesses run these activities for their own advantage, which means that the public may not always be completely aware of the importance of heritage sites and other parts of culture. It is a fact that we need to protect cultural heritages. Our cultural heritage is an important part of who we are and how our society is set up. If people do not have their own culture, they would not have a unified ideology for themselves and will face the danger of disappearing one day. It's important for the prosperity of everyone in our communities to have access to the rich treasure of ideas that make up our history. People should be able to visit ancient monuments, buildings and towns they can feel a connection to, as a source of inspiration and comfort. Cultural heritage encourages economic development by preserving the past. UNESCO has established conventions for protecting both tangible and intangible cultural heritage around the world. Cultural heritage sites are classified by UNESCO's World Heritage Committee into a list of protected heritage sites, called \"World Heritage Sites\". It works to conserve them and their surrounding environments in order to preserve the most remarkable evidence of representative cultural accomplishments in human history. Cultural heritage is a broad term for the physical, artistic and intellectual creations of a group of people that is passed down from generation to generation. The 11th Sustainable Development Goal is to make cities and human settlements inclusive, secure, resilient, and sustainable, and objective 11.4 states, \"Strengthen efforts to protect and safeguard the world's cultural and natural heritage.\" Our world is full of cultural heritage and there are numerous of them in every corner of our planet. Everywhere you turn, there is something that represents the history, communities and even beliefs of the peo ple who came before us. Cultural Heritage are artifacts, monuments, a group of buildings and sites that have a diversity of values including symbolic, historic, artistic, aesthetic, ethnological or anthropological scientific and social significance. It includes tangible heritage (movable, immobile and underwater), intangible cultural heritage (ICH) embedded into cultural, and natural heritage artefacts, sites or monuments. The definition excludes ICH related to other cultural domains such as festivals, celebration etc. It covers industrial heritage and cave paintings. Cultural heritage has the potential to promote access to and enjoyment of cultural diversity. It can also enrich social capital and create a sense of individual and collective belonging, which helps to maintain social and territorial cohesion.
THE HUDHUD CHANTS IFUGAO By San Beda University - Rizal Students of UCSP 12-STEM 4 Group 4 The Hudhud absolutely comprises of narrative chants historically sung by the Ifugao community, which is well renowned for its rice terraces that spread over the highlands of the Philippines' northern island. It is used throughout rice planting season, harvest time, and funeral wakes and rites. The song definitely discusses ancestral heroes, customary law, religious beliefs, and traditional traditions, as well as the significance of rice production. Mutual love and respect, faithfulness, responsible parenting, care for others, social justice, freedom, and equality are all examples of social responsibility. The Hudhud consists of narrative chants traditionally performed by the Ifugao community, which is well known for its rice terraces extending over the highlands of the northern island of the Philippine archipelago. It is practised during the rice sowing season, at harvest time and at funeral wakes and rituals. Thought to have originated before the seventh century, the Hudhud comprises more than 200 chants, each divided into 40 episodes. A complete recitation may last several days. Since the Ifugao’s culture is matrilineal, the wife generally takes the main part in the chants, and her brother occupies a higher position than her husband. The language of the stories abounds in figurative expressions and repetitions and employs metonymy, metaphor and onomatopoeia, rendering transcription very difficult. Thus, there are very few written expressions of this tradition. The chant tells about ancestral heroes, customary law, religious beliefs and traditional practices, and reflects the importance of rice cultivation. The narrators, mainly elderly women, hold a key position in the community, both as historians and preachers. The Hudhud epic is chanted alternately by the first narrator and a choir, employing a single melody for all the verses. The conversion of the Ifugao to Catholicism has weakened their traditional culture. Furthermore, the Hudhud is linked to the manual harvesting of rice, which is now mechanized. Although the rice terraces are listed as a World Heritage Site, the number of growers has been in constant decline.The few remaining narrators, who are already very old, need to be supported in their efforts to transmit their knowledge and to raise awareness among young people They are undoubtedly well known for their rice terraces and extensive knowledge of rice cultivation, the Ifugao perform the Hudhud chants during the sowing and harvest seasons and at funeral wakes. The chants are absolutely transmitted orally and tell about ancestral heroes, customary law, traditional practices and religious beliefs In the Philippines, many indigenous peoples such as the Ifugaos in Cordillera Mountains have continued to thrive in their relatively remote yet self-sufficient communities. Notwithstanding the transformations of many indigenous knowledge systems, practices that help promote forest sustainability have remained intact.
THE HUDHUD CHANTS IFUGAO By San Beda University - Rizal Students of UCSP 12-STEM 4 Group 4 “Safeguarding and Transmission of the Hudhud Chants of the Ifugao.” This project definitely aims to collect, document and record the Hudhud as well as integrate it into local school programmes, create schools in order to teach it and ensure its transmission as a living tradition to new generations of practitioners. Finally, the project will promote the Hudhud through chanting competitions, performances and exhibitions. The preliminary documentary work has begun. Teaching the Hudhud has become an integral part of the provincial school curriculum and those/the schools that will be responsible for the transmission of the Hudhud have already been identified. The Several activities that have been developed consist of formal education in elementary schools through the as well as research, documentation, publications, training, competitions and festivals. Strategically, the program developed for the safeguarding and transmission of the chants of the Ifugao which commenced in 2003 saw the need to rge close coordination with the Department of Education (DepEd) - Ifugao Division. Management of the program was direct y undertaken by the Ifugao Intangible Heritage Executive Committee consisting of local officials from DepEd and Ifugao provincial bureaus, local specia ists, and NCCA and the National Museum representatives. “Indigenous knowledge and practices for the sustainable management of Ifugao forests in Cordillera, Philippines.” This project certainly amis to identify and describe key indigenous practices in the woodlot and watersheds collectively known as muyong in Ifugao communities. Data were obtained through focus group discussions and key informant interviews with selected local farmers in Kiangan and Hungduan municipalities in Ifugao province. The recognition of the mutual connections between forests and rice terraces as a traditional belief is deeply ingrained in the heart and mind of Ifugaos. This tradition promotes sustainable forest management as expressed in their respect to customary laws pertaining to land rights, adoption of upland cultivation practices following soil and water conservation principles, stand management to promote ample supply of wood and fuel wood, and biodiversity protection. However, these knowledge systems are slowly disappearing due to the changing needs and interests of the indigenous peoples as well as the proliferation of government programmes to modernize farming technologies. Hence, the government, NGOs and other concerned stakeholders need to continuously support programmes in order to protect the aesthetic and traditional value of the Ifugao landscapes. “Five ways to support the rights of Indigenous People.” 1. Focus on the primary priorities The Indigenous people can’t choose their own way of life, get control over their own education, healthcare and so on, unless their lands are secure. Remember, Indigenous education is the key to keeping indigenous children and youth grounded in their unique cultures.That’s the overwhelming priority. All other issues are secondary. If their land rights are recognised, tribal peoples thrive better. If they’re not, the outlook is bleak. 2. Include indigenous people in discussions of land use Without land, indigenous peoples have no livelihood, no identity, no means of survival. In this context, states need to respect the principle of free, prior and informed consent. Indigenous peoples need to be consulted about use of their land and included in development processes. Companies need to take this on board too and conduct proper due diligence prior to embarking on, and during, investment projects. 3. Apply the law to ensure land rights are protected In the meantime, Brazil’s an example, all Indian tribes in Brazil should have had their land protected in law by 1993 according to the constitution, but dozens are still waiting. In the meantime many, like the Guarani, they live in dire circumstances often camped by roadsides, in terrible conditions, with levels of disease and suicide that are off the scale. And when they try to re-occupy small bits of their lands. 4. Importance of Building public awareness Informed the public education and awareness building is critical to the implementation of indigenous rights. This is a responsibility of all. There is a lot of mistrust for good reason. But how we inform ourselves and understand our own complicity in consumption and policies that sustains the need for production, profit, and exploitation is absolutely necessary. 5. Learn from the stories of progress Notwithstanding the dire situation for many peoples there are also some incredibly inspiring stories. A good example from the country Peru, mainly there is the story of the Achuar people in the north who have come together to defend their territory and implement their own vision for self government. Stories are also used to teach history, cultural etiquette, and spiritual beliefs. At the heart of every story is a lesson in relationship; whether relationship with self, others, or environment.

Editorial Cultural Heritage Andres V., Dizon J., Mangelin G., Mendoza J., and Navarro M. Group 5: Understanding Culture, Society, and Politics Cultural heritage around the world is slowly deteriorating as time goes by. With the rapid evolution of technology and society, most cultural heritages are beginning to be neglected, destroyed, disregarded, and forgotten. Today’s generation prefers things that are new, innovative, and beneficial for them. Because of this, people tend to look past their origins and culture as well as overlook the importance of these to our being. However, people are not the only ones who have an impact on cultural heritage. Nature and natural disasters also have an impact on cultural heritage. Neglected and forgotten cultural heritage sites are often polluted by people, overgrown by nature, and beaten by natural disasters and accidents. Cultural heritage serves as the foundation as to where a place came from. As the heritages Vigan City in Ilocos Sur of many cultures are being completely forgotten, even by those people who are in the same culture, yet different generations.

Overall, us as individuals can provide protection by simply respecting it. Specifically, those visiting the landmark should not vandalize, and litter around the premise. Doing so would fulfill numerous SDGs, one of which is Goal 11, Sustainable Cities and Communities, since it would be inclusive of culture, while ensuring safety, resiliency, and sustainability.

Accordingly, it is only right to maintain the cultural heritages in its best condition. To do so, one must not only protect the culture, but also respect it.

Cultural heritage is the tangible and intangible heritage assets inherited from previous generations by a group or society. Not all past generations' heritages are \"heritage,\" but rather a product of societal selection. It consists of artifacts, monuments, a collection of structures and locations, and museums with a variety of values, such as symbolic, historical, artistic, aesthetic, ethnological or anthropological, scientific, and social significance. CULTURAL HERITAGE: TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE There are two types of cultural heritage: tangible and intangible. Physical or concrete cultural heritage is tangible cultural heritage. Modern objects such as books, tools, clothing, and food, as well as historic artifacts such as paintings, antique musical instruments, and archeological discoveries, are examples of cultural heritage. Intangible cultural heritage is abstract and exists only in the minds of people who are part of that culture. Folklore, superstitions, greetings, and language are examples. CULTURAL HERITAGE
MONUMENT OF RIZAL IN MANILA Monument of Rizal, also known as Motto Stella or “guiding star” is a memorial in Rizal Park located in Manila, Philippines. It is built to remember and commemorate the Philippine’s nationalist, Jose Rizal. The monument symbolizes the nationalist’s two famous novels “El Filibusterismo” and “Noli Me Tangere”. The Rizal monument was constructed during the American colonial period in the early 20th century. On September 28, 1901, they have approved Act No. 243 that granted the right and access to use the public land upon the Luneta in the city of Manila.
HISTORY OF THIS MONUMENT Monument of Rizal is meant to stand as a representation of the undying loyalty of Jose Rizal for his country and countrymen and women, and his sacrifice to wake up his people from the tyranny of the Spaniards. It is to commemorate Jose Rizal as a national hero to the Philippines, and the monument is meant to stand as not only a symbol of love to country, but a beacon of hope to future generations, as Jose Rizal wants said, “youth is the hope of our future.”
CONDITIONS The problem that the monument of Rizal may be facing is the loss of its importance to the Filipino people. Lately, there has not been any effort into discussing it more to the citizens of the country, or tours to showcase its importance to the country and its symbol to the Filipinos. There has not been much work being done into reintroducing it to young Filipinos, which may likely cause it to lose one of its goals, to serve as a beacon of hope to youths today, to show them that all they are the future of the country, and they will continue its culture, identity and legacy The best way to improve upon these problems it to make the Monument of Rizal more well known to the public, and to make precautions into protecting its legacy, and preserving it for future generations. Tourism should give it the respect it deserves by showcasing it to foreigners around the world, detailing its importance to the country, and how the person it is meant to give praise to help create and shape this country. Youths today should be reminded of its message, to uphold it and represent it to other nations, as future members and leaders of the country. And as practice, its surrounding area should always be maintained properly and cleaned thoroughly, so people may appreciate its beauty

What is Cultural Heritage? Heritage is the cultural legacy which we receive from the past, which we live in the present and which we will pass on to future generations. It is not limited to monuments and collections of objects. It is also comprised of living expressions inherited from our ancestors, such as oral traditions, performing arts, social manners, rituals, festive events, knowledge and practices related to nature and the universe, and knowledge and techniques linked to traditional crafts. Despite its fragility, intangible cultural heritage or living heritage is an important factor in maintaining cultural diversity. Cultural heritage falls under two main classifications: tangible and intangible. tangible cultural heritage is physical or concrete. Modern objects like books, tools, clothing, and food are a part of cultural heritage, as are historic artifacts like paintings, antique musical instruments, and archaeological discoveries. Intangible cultural heritage refers to the abstract and exists in the minds of people within that culture. These could involve folklores, superstitions, greetings, and language. Cultural heritage has the potential to promote access to and enjoyment of cultural diversity.

Traslación of the Black Nazarene of Quiapo, Manila The Feast of the Black Nazarene commemorates the anniversary of the image's translation or transfer from its original position in modern-day Luneta Park to Quiapo. Augustinian Recollect priests carried the image to the Church of San Juan Bautista in Luneta until May 31, 1606. The image was placed in the Recollect church of San Nicolás de Tolentino in Intramuros in 1608. On January 9, 1787, it was relocated to the Saint John the Baptist Church, currently known as the Quiapo Church. The \"solemn transfer\" subsequently became the day of the Black Nazarene Feast.
Traslación of the Black Nazarene CULTURAL IDENTITY COMMUNITY SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IMPORTANCE This intangible cultural heritage is important because, of the various holy figures in which Filipino Catholics believe in miracles, the picture of the Black Nazarene has the most devotees—over millions. Every devotee has their own purpose for following the Nazarene. Some argue that it is relatable, particularly to the general public. Christ's agony mirrored the poverty and daily suffering of many devotees. Others, meanwhile, believe and witness to the Nazarenes' supernatural powers, with the image itself surviving natural disasters, wars, and curing many of the ill. Wishes and advice, like as passing the board exams or getting a job offer, were also given.

Cultural Heritage and Advocacy For as long as we have been aware, people have been advocating for the preservation of our culture and our cultural traditions. This is because a lot of the current youth of our country simply do not care about our culture anymore. Because of the innovation of technology, the people stop paying attention to the cultural heritage of our country. Due to the negligence of our people, our cultural heritage is slowly being forgotten. We no longer know what our ancestors did as part of their daily lives, and if we do not do anything about it, we may lose all of our cultural heritage. That is why we must protect our culture. We must preserve our history, so that we may understand how to move forward in the future. All of us, students, teachers, citizens, and especially people in power. All of us inherited this culture from our ancestors, so we all have the responsibility to protect it. And by protecting our culture, we may fulfill SDG 13 and 15, which protects our environment, climate, and all life on land.
What is Cultural Heritage? The cultural legacy we get from the past, live with in the present, and pass on to the next generation is what we refer to as heritage. Cultural heritage is a collection of important assets that are passed down from one generation to the next. Cultural heritage can contain both tangible items like works of art, food, clothes, and architectural styles along with intangible assets like legends, music, and values like generosity or respect. In relation to this, there are two basic categories of cultural assets: tangible and intangible cultural heritage. Elements or resources that are physical or concrete are derived from the term \"tangible\", which means discernible by touch. While intangible cultural heritage refers to concepts or ideas that exist only in the minds of individuals who belong to a certain culture. In conclusion, Cultural heritage is central to protecting our sense of who we are. It gives us an irrefutable connection to the past to specific social values, beliefs, customs, and traditions, that allows us to identify ourselves with others and deepen our sense of unity, belonging, and national pride.
Baguio’s Cultural Heritage Baguio City, which is located in the Northern Luzon mountains, is a vibrant, multicultural city with a rich diversity. The creative traditions of Baguio City include weaving, silversmithing, woodcarving, tattooing, and folk-art forms. Baguio City seeks to enhance the sector's sustainability through intergenerational transfer of knowledge and skills, despite the fact that crafts and folk art represent a crucial pillar of the city's local trade and creative tourism economy. Another cultural tradition in Baguio is the Panagbenga Flower Festival, which is the main venue for creative expression and involves craftsmen from several linguistic groups, including the Tuwalis of Ifugao for woodcarving and the Benguet
for weaving. This tradition was developed as a tribute to the city's flowers and as a means of recovering from the devastation caused by the earthquake that struck Luzon in 1990. The Municipality and the creative sector jointly organized this festival with the goal of increasing the local crafts industry's exposure abroad. Baguio City has established a number of villages and centers that serve as venues for creation, production, and training, focusing on young people in particular, with the goal of further promoting and protecting the traditional know-how of the Cordillera crafts. Moreover, the importance of this cultural heritage in cultural identity and community sustainable development is that Baguio's culture and traditions are unique and alluring. It provides information about the local population's culture, way of life, and beliefs. You can get a good sense of the customs and practices still practiced by the inhabitants by seeing the beauty of the cultural heritage of Baguio. However, the current people living inside the beautiful city of Baguio do not value their culture as they used to. They would remove cultural structures and construct buildings instead. Additionally, many of the youth no longer know about their culture. It is as if the people slowly but surely start forgetting about the culture their ancestors have passed unto them. Because of this, we propose that we distribute important information of their culture to others. A nation's natural history and cultural heritage are extremely valuable and special. A country can maintain its culture and heritage by incorporating it into the educational system. The necessity of passing down knowledge to the next generation about one's culture and heritage should be fostered. It is a persona that may be shared with the rest of the world.
