Abstract: The study aimed to determine the relationships between the tribal leaders competencies on their aboriginal leadership functions and the effectiveness of the Certificate of Ancestral Domain Title (CADT) as an empowerment tool in the ancestral domain of the Ayangans. The study was undertaken in the selected barangays of the three municipalities of Nueva Vizcaya where the Ayangan has established their ancestral domain. There were 308 households who served as the respondents of the study selected through systematic random sampling. The result indicated tribal leaders were moderately capable in performing their executive, legislative and judicial leadership functions. Likewise, the CADT was moderately effective as an empowerment tool in terms of the recognition of ancestral domain, social justice, cultural integrity, and self-governance. The data further denoted that the leadership capability of the tribal leaders and the effectiveness of the CADT as an empowerment tool are significantly and positively correlated inferring a direct relationship between the variables.
