TABUK CITY, Kalinga โ€“ A significant milestone was achieved in the ongoing ancestral domain delineation process as the elders and leaders of the Uma Ancestral Domain in Lubuagan and the Balatoc Ancestral Domain in Pasil reached a mutual agreement on their common boundary.

The agreement was forged during a boundary conference held on May 28, 2026, at the NCIP Kalinga Provincial Office. The meeting was facilitated and documented by the NCIP Kalinga Provincial Delineation Team as part of the requirements for the application for delineation, titling, and recognition of the Uma Ancestral Domain.

Through constructive dialogue and in accordance with indigenous customary decision-making processes, the elders and leaders of both ancestral domains arrived at a consensus regarding their territorial boundary. The agreement reflects the commitment of both communities to uphold peace, mutual respect, and cooperation while safeguarding their ancestral lands and cultural heritage.

The successful settlement of the boundary concern is expected to contribute positively to the ongoing ancestral domain delineation process and further strengthen the relationship between the Uma and Balatoc communities.
