The Mt. Inayawan Range Natural Park , a protected area situated in the province of Lanao del Norte, has been declared the 53rd Asean Heritage Park and the 11th PA in the Philippines to earn such distinction.MIRNP is known as the “last forest bastion” in the province for being the only primary remaining and largest rainforest dominated by dipterocarp species and containing high diversity of flora and fauna. It is the primary water source of surrounding and nearby communities and municipalities.
“The distinction of Mt. Inayawan Range Natural Park as an Asean Heritage Park is a great honor,” said Lanao del Norte Governor Imelda Dimaporo “Together, let us stand as guardians of nature, protectors of our heritage, and advocates for a greener and healthier planet,” she added. Dr. Theresa Mundita Lim, ACB executive director, lauded and welcomed MIRNP to the growing network of AHP.
She expressed ACB’s readiness to support the park’s conservation efforts and to help ensure the effective and efficient management of this new AHP. Since its establishment in 1984, the AHP Programme has declared 55 PAs as part of the AHP network. These heritage sites are biologically rich parks and nature reserves that serve as models of effective PA management and conservation.
