The researchers used a qualitative design particularly on the textual analysis to arrive at the best solution to the problem. This study used Wojtyla’s theory of participation in describing the experiences of the Dumingag Subanen. The discussion of the theory of participation presented the history, principles, fundamentals, and the different views regarding this theory of participation. The notion of participation from Karol Jozef Wojtyla’s theory was expounded to describe the community life of the Dumingag Subanen.

This philosophy of Karol Jozef Wojtyla is applicable not only in the Subanen commununity but to all who aims towards a common good.
