> 09 January 2010. Our group started to collect deeper details about our indigenous origins and about our ancestral relations to the people of Cordillera. Cultural heritage sustainable development projects begun.​

 

> ​11 July 2011. Fellow educated Igorots planned to organize our first non-stock, non-profit cultural association named Society of Dynamic Cordillerans for the students and out-of-school-youth not just of Mapita, Laoag, Aguilar, Pangasinan, The Philippines, but as well as of the various indigenous peoples to continue their studies and to have the best future that awaited them. Humanitarian projects with cultural heritage sustainable development projects begun across the Philippines.​ ​

> 11 July 2013. Though Typhoon Juaning was hitting the northern part of Luzon with strong winds and heavy rain, we still continued our project to have the ceremonial school ground-breaking of the soon-to-be world class private secondary high school for the indigenous peoples of Northern Luzon located in our more than a hectare land at Mapita, Aguilar, Pangasinan, The Philippines. It was indeed a successful project. The heavy and unpredictable rain of Typhoon Juaning did not stop us. We were able to present to the officers our income generating projects for our fellow indigenous people there such as local products made from the place's raw materials that could be imported because of its world class designs and handmade. The people involved here are descendants from Casiguran Dumagat, Ifugao, Ibaloi, Kankana ey, Tiduray and Ivatan ethnic groups from the Philippines and Otomi Indians of Mexico.
