Description

The book is about the techno-cultural journey of the Matigsalug of Davao City, Philippines. Called “People of the River”, the Matigsalug people’s identity is known to have a solid link with the Davao River. It has, thus, become ironic that the introduced technology is about water. The book talks about a water safety system that showcases strong multi-stakeholder partnership while highlighting the importance of social preparation, communication, and technology itself in the technology transfer process involving a unique group of individuals.
