READ THE REPORT

Mabuhay House Society, in collaboration with the Province of British Columbia, proudly announces the release of the “What We Heard” report, summarizing the results of the province-wide public engagement efforts for the development of a Filipino Cultural Centre. This landmark initiative marks a historic step forward in recognizing the vibrant and growing Filipino Canadian community in British Columbia.

The report captures the voices of over 1,200 Filipino Canadians and allies from across the province and reflects the community’s aspirations for a space that honours their roots, contributions, and future in BC. The key themes from the engagement include:

  • Bayanihan or Community Spirit – A resounding desire for a welcoming, inclusive, and accessible cultural space that fosters community connection and collaboration.

  • Recognition and Representation – A clear call for a centre that physically symbolizes Filipino heritage, and formally acknowledges the many contributions of the Filipino community to the social, cultural, and economic fabric of British Columbia.

  • Learning and Sharing – A strong emphasis on education and cultural exchange, creating opportunities for both Filipinos and non-Filipinos to learn, celebrate, and share in the richness of Filipino culture.
