    Filipino Values in the Community

    It is better to keep in mind that these values are very essential in bringing forth changes and progress
    in the community. These values can be an important instrument in influencing the people in the community
    towards productive change and development.

    Below are several values that can help in bring together people for a common goal and advocacy.

    1. Pakikisama/Camaraderie – refers to an interpersonal relationship where people are friendly with each
    other. To be with someone and to get along with each other indicates basic human friendliness and
    affinity. It is a basic tendency for Filipinos and is expressed in their private lives, their public workplaces,
    and in their relationship with their neighbors. Filipinos believe that they live and act together with co-
    equals and consider it only natural that the consideration they show other will be reciprocated. So, people
    show a strong tendency to help, share and cooperate with those they are with.

    2. Familial/Close Family Ties – Filipino are said to value and take good care of their family. Genuine concern
    for the family is manifested in the honor and respect given to parents and elders, in the support and care
    extended to children and in the great sacrifices one endures for the welfare of the family. This family
    orientation makes every member develop a feeling of belongingness and sense of safety and security.

    3. Hospitality – refers to the warm welcome that the Filipino gives to visitors who come to his and her home,
    especially strangers. Filipinos tend to create relationship and open their homes regardless of any
    stereotypical biases. They are easy to get along with and treat them as though they were family members.

    4. Damayan System – refers to the sympathy for people who suffered lost and in unfavorable situations.
    Filipinos tend to express their sympathy very easily and pull people in their intimate circle for comfort and
    support.

    5. Flexibility and Adaptability – Filipinos can keep up with whatever life throw at them. They deal with the
    challenges and changes in their everyday lives as it happens. They easily conform to the situation as well as
    in dealing with the unexpected. This is the ability of the Filipinos to adjust to the norms of other groups to
    attain smooth and harmonious relationship. This is exemplified during disaster wherein many families are
    displaced in evacuation centers and need to cope with the hard times.

    6. Resiliency – nothing can keep the Filipino down. Even in dire situation, Filipino always find a reason to
    laugh at the difficulties and proceed with their lives. This is the ability to recover and regain readily one’s
    particular state and recover without intervention. This can be summed up with the phase “to rise from the
    rubble”.

    7. Bayanihan Spirit – it is a Filipino word derived from the word bayan meaning town, nation, or community
    in general. "Bayanihan" literally means, "being a bayan or town," and is thus used to refer to a spirit of
    communal unity and cooperation. It is an indigenous Filipino trait that refers to a community or group of
    people with a common greater goal and helping one another to achieve it. Bayanihan promotes a culture
    of cooperation, collaboration, teamwork and innovation.
