abstract = {The study sought to identify the cultural profile, beliefs and practices, attitude toward literacy
education, and Agta problems and aspirations as an input for the Agta literacy program. Descriptive
The profile variables were determined through research as an input to the literacy program to
improve Agta's education. According to the findings, the Agta got their name from prominent people,
their dialect is Upos, and they live in a simple and temporary shelter. Furthermore, the male Agta
served as the family's head and provider, while the female Agta assisted with child rearing and
housekeeping. They prefer to eat foods found in their environment and spend their leisure time
bonding with their fellow Agta and chewing betel nuts, momma, or nganga. The Agta, on the other
hand, have a rich cultural heritage regarding the stages of life such as conception, childbirth, child
rearing, courtship, marriage, and death and burial. The majority of Agta are illiterate. They
demonstrated a positive and extremely favorable attitude toward literacy education. Agta has
concerns and desires, particularly regarding their children's education. It was also discovered that
stakeholders and the Local Government Unit support Agta education, so implementing a literacy
program for Agta to improve their education is highly recommended.},
