The Cordillera heroes refer to indigenous leaders and activists from the Cordillera region of the Philippines who fought against colonial oppression, land grabbing, and environmental destruction. Notable figures include Macliing Dulag, a leader of the Kalinga people, who opposed the Chico River Dam project in the 1970s; he became a symbol of resistance against government and corporate exploitation. These heroes are celebrated for their commitment to indigenous rights, cultural preservation, and environmental stewardship. Their legacy continues to inspire contemporary movements for social justice and environmental protection.
