Ancestral Domain Delineation and Recognition: CADT of Aytas of Bataan

The objective of this report is to explain and understand the process of ancestral domain delineation and recognition through a case study of the Pastolan Aytas of Hermosa, Bataan Province. Because the issuance of a Certificate of Ancestral Domain Title (CADT) is a provision for the securing of rights to their ancestral domain by indigenous peoples in the Philippines, a community that goes through the issuance of a CADT will also interface with different government agencies, specifically the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP), and most probably any or a combination of the following departments: Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR), Department of Agriculture (DA), National Anti-poverty Commission (NAPC), Local Government Units (LGU) and the Land Registration Authority (LRA). For this case study, because of the nature of the location of the Pastolan Aytas in the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority area (SBMA), the latter plays a dominant role in the process of ancestral domain delineation and recognition.
