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.
