Ministry of Indigenous Peoples' Affairs
Protects and promotes the rights and well-being of non-Moro indigenous peoples in BARMM, in line with their beliefs, culture and institutions. It replaced the Office for Southern Cultural Communities.
No Citizen’s Charter published
Every government office must publish a Citizen’s Charter: each service it gives, what to bring, what it costs and how long it takes. We could not find one from the Ministry of Indigenous Peoples' Affairs online, so its services are not listed here until it does. Ask the office directly, or tell us where its charter is.
No website of its own was found.
