September is Maritime and Archipelagic Nation Awareness Month — “MANA Mo”

DFA Maritime and Ocean Affairs Office (MOAO) is inviting every Filipino to celebrate with us a month of pride in our maritime heritage, our patrimony, our birthright.

This year’s theme is “Iisang Bangka Tayo: Philippine Unity in Uncertain Times”, our brave Bayanihan response to the covid-19 pandemic.

A webinar entitled “The Balangay through the Lens of Philippine Maritime History and Boat Culture”, to revisit our seafaring and boatmaking traditions since pre-colonial times — a journey back to the past that will give us a step or two into the Filipino future, with humility and hope.

We look forward to welcoming you on board!

 

 

Questions during the webinar may be raised through the chat box available on the right side of your YouTube Screen.
