\u201cMore than presenting our unique and varied indigenous fabrics, we also aim to educate the public on the importance of supporting our traditional textile industry,\u201d said HABI President Adelaida Lim. \u201cWe hope to prove to our fellow Filipinos and the global community that indigenous textiles fit very well with the modern lifestyle,\u201d Lim added.<\/p>\n

The fair will also feature a talk on cultural appropriation by Marlon Martin of Save The Ifugao Rice Terraces Movement.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, in keeping with HABI\u2019s long-term commitment and advocacy of reviving the use of pure cotton, there will also be a lecture on cultivating and growing cotton, a fiber that is endemic in the Philippines and is very much part of the native Filipino rituals and lore, and indigenous culture.<\/p>\n
