The Seventh Igorot International Conference on April 12-15, 2008 in Banaue, Philippines will start and end with Worship recognizing that the Igorots are very spiritual beings. This enhances the respect to the Creator for his creation and the created. The theme can be re-stated as “nurturing the culture of created beings and resources since creation to chart and secure our destiny towards eternity.”
