The Guimaras State University (GSU) CMPG Team together with representatives from the Provincial Government of Guimaras and its five (5) municipalities—Buenavista, Jordan, Nueva Valencia, San Lorenzo and Sibunag—took part in the Cultural Mapping of Panay and Guimaras (CMPG) writing workshop in Fatima Farms Resort, San Lorenzo, Guimaras on 20 September 2024.
Spearheading this endeavor was the UPV CMPG Core Team. They have organized a full day of activities, including writing exercises for research assistants, presentations of their accomplished mapping forms, and critiquing and evaluations from the UPV team.
During the event, the CMPG Video Documentary Team, under the direction of Ms. Julie Prescott, also went around to various parts of the province to document the cultural heritage assets of Guimaras.
The Cultural Mapping of Panay and Guimaras Project is in connection with the Republic Act No. 11961, also known as the “Cultural Mapping Law,” authored by the office of Senator Loren B. Legarda.
