Description
Kalinga Mission for Indigenous Children and Youth Development, Inc. (KAMICYDI) is an indigenous peoples organization (IPO) organized by active students and professionals. Since its start, in 1984, KAMICYDI has contributed to biodiversity conservation and in ensuring a sustainable future for Kalinga Indigenous Peoples.
Projects
1. Sustainable Indigenous Peoples Agricultural Technology (SIPAT): This project is based on an indigenous best practice that integrates forest, watershed, indigenous communal irrigation systems, and rice terraces-fish-vegetable integration.
2. Bio-Intensive Gardening (BIG): This particular project aims to increase vegetables production of farmers and improve their health by not using chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This also aims to increase soil fertility and stop air pollution caused by chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
3. Kalinga Integrated Sustainable Development Project: This project aims to complement the SIPAT Project but focused on grassland reforestation as source of sustainable wood consumption for the local and indigenous communities.
4. Kalinga Indigenous Children and Youth’s Manage Nursery and Agro-forestation Project: This project aims to empower directly indigenous children and youths to establish and manage a nursery and implement agro forestation as their long-term source of income and at the same time contribute to biodiversity conservation.
5. Microfinance Facility for Kalinga Indigenous Women (for Poverty Reduction and Biodiversity Conservation): At present, KAMICYDI is providing microfinance to children and youths, farmers and now women for viable small enterprises that promote biodiversity conservation and at the same time reduce poverty.
