Echoes of Identity:
Tracking Filipino Cultural Landscapes
in Edmonton

This initiative aims to document and map the rich and diverse cultural assets, traditions, and stories of the Filipino community, ensuring their recognition, preservation and sustainability for generations to come.

Through this cultural mapping endeavor, we aim to empower our community, engage diverse voices,

and foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of our cultural heritage.

We call on all Filipinos, and those of Filipino-descent, in Edmonton! Your voice matters!
