A total of 506 participants registered during the first day of the Consultation, increasing to 638 guests and delegates on the third day, at the British Museum.

Of the participants from all over the world, the greatest numbers came from the USA and the Philippines. Other delegates represented Canada, Australia, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Ireland, Austria, the United Kingdom, and Saudi Arabia. The three-day conference focused on development issues and challenges that continuously affect Igorots in the 21st century.

I am a proud Igorot lady. I admit that this was not the most well executed IIC in its history. However, the spirit of the IICs have remained constant, and IIC in London was no exception. The spirit and soul of its message was evidently visible and may it live on forever. 

IIC-4 relayed a message. And the message is this: We can’t look forward, until we look back. From the Youth perspective, I genuinely, wholeheartedly, agree with this. I feel the consultation managed to address key issues in principle, but only when actions are undertaken can we say, we attained success.  I believe IIC-4 was a great success in terms of its programs.
