It is a non-stock, non-profit, P.C.N.C. and 1% for Planet accredited foundation. It hopes to champion Archipelagic Creativity and Craftsmanship through placemaking, publishing, archiving, & celebrating culture and nature, through projects that design with and for the climate, biodiversity, and ecology, our archipelago.  ︎︎︎ HOW TO SUPPORTEstablished in 2000, as a legacy of National Artist for Architecture Francisco Mañosa and now led by his grandduaghters together with a Board of Directors composed 100% of women creatives, entrepreneurs, architects, & designers, the Tukod Foundation aims to embody this idea of supporting and opening new windows of possibilities for the Filipino community, and our pride of place, utilising vernacular and traditional local creativity, for regional and global transformation. <img width="3840" height="2160" width_o="3840" height_o="2160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5bd4342a1f89440d79118164bef9bfdf8af623ad0e54819e64850dc15437fec4/02.png" data-mid="240830490" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5bd4342a1f89440d79118164bef9bfdf8af623ad0e54819e64850dc15437fec4/02.png" /> Tukod is a Filipino ecological design and educational foundation that focuses on place-based creative and cultural climate solutions. The foundation addresses our archipelago's most urgent climate issue: the increasing vulnerability of frontline communities to super typhoons, flooding, sea-level rise, and cultural and environmental degradation, by regenerating culture through championing vernacular design and accelerating Indigenous wisdom and craftsmanship within local island ecologies. We aim to strengthen imagination, creativity, and resiliency believing that climate solutions and design are deeply embedded in and reflected by our cultural and ecological practices. ︎︎︎ OUR STORY Tukod has since grown from supporting the development of one public school to now expanding to at least one community across all 18 regions of the Philippines such as the coastal community of Halian Island and the Indigenous community of Agusan Marsh. Directly engaging thousands of young people through co-created projects co-led with Indigenous leaders, youth networks, and cultural institutions. ︎ CURRENTLY - TANAW: ANNUAL SILENT AUCTION & SUPPER CLUB Work with us https://tukod.org/Work-with-us Mon, 22 Sep 2025 04:37:50 +0000 Tukod Foundation https://tukod.org/Work-with-us Work with Us︎︎︎ VIEW OUR DONOR PACKAGES M&V https://tukod.org/M-V Mon, 22 Sep 2025 04:37:50 +0000 Tukod Foundation https://tukod.org/M-V <img width="1920" height="460" width_o="1920" height_o="460" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/eb8e94eaa4d0053cc3a53108e924b620444f8f830d779278880e5037e176225d/COCNUT-PALAC.png" data-mid="238493664" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/eb8e94eaa4d0053cc3a53108e924b620444f8f830d779278880e5037e176225d/COCNUT-PALAC.png" /> VISION ✹ GINHAWA For every Filipino community to champion design, craft, and creativity across our archipelago and the world to.

After being ravaged by Typhoon Odette in 2021, it took DepEd 4 years to rebuild the classrooms and only a month later are they filled with leaks. We believe BAYAY HALIAN is necessary to prove to people it is possible to design good spaces for the future generations of Filipinos. BAYAY HALIAN is designed in collaboration with Bea Rodriguez, Bea Carague, Janelle Gan, and the teachers of Halian Island, under the guidance of Arch. Angelo Mañosa of Mañosa & Co., and mentor Arch.
