Sabangan (), officially the Municipality of Sabangan (; ) is a municipality in the province of Mountain Province, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 8,556 people.
== History == === Chico River Dam Project === Sabangan was one of several municipalities in Mountain Province which would have been flooded by the Chico River Dam Project during the Marcos dictatorship, alongside Bauko, Bontoc, Sadanga, Sagada, and parts of Barlig. However, the indigenous peoples of Kalinga Province and Mountain Province resisted the project and when hostilities resulted in the murder of Macli-ing Dulag, the project became unpopular and was abandoned before Marcos was ousted by the 1986 People Power Revolution.
