Aims: This phenomenological study aimed to explore the lived experiences, coping strategies, and insights of the Blaan tribe in their practice of the Pangayaw or revenge-killing. Study Design: This study employs a qualitative design utilizing the phenomenological approach. Place and Duration of Study: This study was conducted among the Blaans tribe that belongs in Kiblawan, Davao Del Sur, between 2020 and 2021. Methodology: During data collection, there were nine (9) participants who willingly consented to participate in the in-depth interviews. After data was collected, transcribed, and translated, it was subjected to thematic analysis. Results: The results revealed the lived experiences, coping strategies, and insights of the Blaans. In the practice of Pangayaw, it was found that the members of the bereaved family feel relieved after vengeance was served. Meanwhile, coping strategies used include the settlement of issues with other families, along with government officials and money for compensation. On the other hand, members of the tribe shared their insights on the need to stop the practice of Pangayaw and called for legal interventions. Conclusion: The study concluded that National Commission on Indigenous People (NCIP) should re-evaluate the conduct of this tradition for the well-being of the members of the tribe.
