CULTURAL MAPPING TOOLKITS DISTRIBUTED TO LA UNION LGUS

In the continuing pursuit of preserving and promoting La Union culture, arts and language, the Provincial Government of La Union (PGLU) through the La Union Provincial Tourism Office (LUPTO)-Culture and the Arts Section (CAS) distributed Cultural Mapping Toolkit donated by the National Commission on Culture and the Arts (NCCA) on May 27 and May 31, 2021. This Mapping Toolkit is received by the Municipal Mayors and representatives of the different Local Government Units of the province.

This mapping toolkit serves as guidelines and specifically aims to help LGUs fulfil their mandate under the republic Act 10066, known as the Heritage Law, to conduct inventory of cultural properties in pursuit to protect, conserve and promote their local and national heritage.

The said toolkit contains manuals on the Principles and Procedures of Local Cultural Mapping and the step by step process for filling out the Philippine Registry of Cultural Property (PRECUP) forms for proper documentation of culture and heritage resources of a locality.

This would also aid the LGUs to comply with NCCA-DILG Joint Memorandum Circular 001-2021 in submitting their Annual Local Cultural Inventory (LCI) to NCCA.

The Provincial Government of La Union continues to intensify strong ties with NCCA and other stakeholders to further enrich the culture of the province and promote heritage preservation. Thus, the PGLU is committed to its deep commitment for the growth of culture and arts in the whole Province of La Union.

The Province of La Union, consistently submitting the provincial Local Cultural Inventory (LCI) to the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), ranks 9th of the Top 10 provinces all over the Philippines with highest compliance of LCI submission for year 2020. This recognition was collectively achieved by the province along with 18 other component local government units (LGUs) in the province achieving the compliance rate of 90.48%.
Republic Act No. 10066 or the National Cultural Heritage Act of 2009 requires all LGUs to establish and maintain a local cultural property registry. LCI submission is facilitated by NCCAโ€™s Philippine Registry of Cultural Property (PRECUP) as the registry oversight body of all national and local cultural property.
This year, the NCCA and the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) issued the Joint Memorandum Circular (JMC) 2021-001 to provide amended procedures on LCI submission and issuance or non-issuance of certificate of compliance (COC). The guidelines provide streamlined mechanisms on new PRECUP forms, schedule of submission, and amended listing and de-listing procedures.
The new JMC highlights the importance of LCI submission COC as an indicator of the โ€œExistence of Updated Cultural Property Inventoryโ€ under the criteria of Tourism, Heritage Development, Culture and Arts for LGUs to achieve the sought-after Seal of Good Local Governance.
