This groundbreaking project is also a part of the Philippine Canada Consortium Magic 7+, a collaboration among seven Philippine State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) and three Canadian universities. Established in 2020, the Magic 7+ Consortium aims to foster cross-border partnerships in research, education, and knowledge sharing.
Despite delays brought about by the pandemic, the BSU IKS Team’s dedication has led to the successful completion of this milestone publication. “This is BSU’s contribution to the Magic 7 Consortium,” shared BSU’s Project Leader, Stanley F. Anongos, Jr.
Following its initial launch during the Adivay Grand Cañao, the Encyclopedia of Benguet Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) will have a second launching at Benguet State University in December 2024.
