Here are just a few of the products homegrown by two women’s groups working to protect forests in the Southern Sierra Madre. You can find kamias prunes and catmon sinigang powder from KUMARE, an organization that was founded in the 90’s after a typhoon hit their homes in Real, Quezon. It stands for Kilos Unlad ng Mamamayan ng Real - “Action to develop citizens of Real.” The eco-bag featuring a rafflesia flower is produced by KALIPI Infanta federation, which stands for Kalipunan ng Liping PIlipina - “Association of united Filipino women.” Together they work with the Women Go project of the Haribon Foundation to insure that forest management in their protected area includes women leadership. Worldwide, 85% of government agencies and ministries in charge of natural resources and the environment are still led by men (IUCN 2020). The difficult work to change this, continues. For more information about these products and how to get them, contact Ms. Amelita D. Talotalo at [email protected]. For info about Women Go, contact Ms. Arlie Jo B. Endonila at [email protected].

Kumaré (2011)

Purchased kamias prunes and catmon sinigang powder from Emma Ayapana who manages KUMARE, an organization that was founded in the 90’s after a typhoon hit their homes in Real, Quezon. It stands for Kilos Unlad ng Mamamayan ng Real - “Action to develop citizens of Real.” Kumare is also a term for fellow woman. Cristy Luna, made the eco-bag with the help of her family, featuring a rafflesia flower. She’s the president of KALIPI Infanta federation, which stands for Kalipunan ng Liping PIlipina - “Association of united Filipino women.” Kalipi is also a term for fellow group or ancestors. Together they work with the Women Go project of the Haribon Foundtion to insure that forest management in their protected area includes women leadership. Biodiversity-friendly enterprises are just part of the work, as they are working with local government to include women. Worldwide, 85% of government agencies and ministries in charge of natural resources and the environment are still led by men (IUCN 2020).
