Welcome to a public lecture with Jennifer (Jing) Corpuz, from the Kankana-ey Igorot People of
Mountain Province in the Philippines.

Indigenous wisdom can help solve the planetary crises that colonialism started, says lawyer Jennifer "Jing" Corpuz. Her ancestors, the Kankanaey-Igorot people of the Philippines, are known for creating the Banaue Rice Terraces: centuries-old irrigated mountain terraces that illustrate the magic of humanity living in harmony with nature. Jennifer (Jing) Corpuz shares five values that have guided her people as they successfully fought against development aggression and invites everyone to pursue a more just, sustainable world.

Jennifer (Jing) Corpuz is a Lawyer and Managing Director for Policy at Nia Tero.

 

The lecture is organised by the Pufendorf IAS Advanced Study Group on Benefit-sharing of Genetic Resources.
