The Cordillera autonomy movement in the Philippines refers to the campaign for greater autonomy for the Cordilleras.
The 1986 Constitution allows for the establishment of two autonomous regions in the country; Muslim Mindanao and in the Cordilleras. Two plebiscites (1990 and 1998) were conducted in the Cordillera to legalize the autonomous status of the area where majority of the voters rejected autonomy. The area is currently under the jurisdiction of the Cordillera Administrative Region.
There are still efforts from some local sectors to establish an autonomous region in the Cordillera.
