It is a Peace Center. Balay Mindanaw humbly offers this Center as its contribution to everyone’s task of seeking and building peace. It has a Peace Room (not a war room) that offers learning resources for peace-builders. The Center will also be the venue for various short and long-term peace courses. It will also be the venue for the various activities related to the on-going peace processes especially between the Government of the Republic of the Philippines (GRP) and the Revolutionary Workers’ Party-Mindanao (RPM-M). It is a formation house for development workers and peace-builders. It has state-of-the-art but modest facilities for workshops, conferences, seminars and courses especially on the broad aspects of sustainable integrated area development (SIAD), conflict transformation and peace-building. It will be the main site for Balay Mindanaw in-house center-based initiatives and activities that help promote and facilitate human and institutional capacity-building, awareness-building, nurturance and enrichment of indigenous knowledge and technologies, and deepening of commitment to development and peace-building work. It is the home of the Balay Mindanaw Family. The Center also serves as the main base of operations of Kab-ot Gahum: Resource Center for Empowerment and Development (RCED), Balay Alternative Legal Advocates for Development in Mindanaw (BALAOD-Mindanaw) and Balay Mindanaw Foundation, Inc (BMFI), – three of the four independent development NGOs that believe in the same vision. As such, it is fondly called "our ancestral home." It is not intended to be a commercial lodging facility for walk-in or drive-in clients. The Center is not a business enterprise or a commercial facility as it is considered to be part and parcel of Balay Mindanaw’s package of programs. However, partners from various people’s organizations, communities, tribes, churches, local government units and government agencies, NGOs and others who wish to seek the services, resources and hospitality of the Center are considered and accepted warmly as house guests. |
