The successful run of the PAMANA photography contest in 2021 inspired us to anchor our future activities with the core objectives of the “PAMANA” contest. As we celebrate the 4th Foundation Day of the Bangsamoro, we are organizing another “PAMANA” contest in the form of a photo essay, which will incorporate the fascinating history of our cultural heritage with this year’s theme: “Sama-samang Pagtataguyod Sa Isang Mas Mapayapa At Mas Masaganang Bangsamoro.
