the center for social concern and action in partnership with the alfred shields fsc ocean research center and the philippine poluution prevention roundtable is sponsoring a learning session on vulnerability assessments of coastal ecosystems in batangas bay.
the one day event scheduled on oct 14 and to be held in de la salle lipa is designed to provide information to key local government unit representatives from the coastal municipalities around batangas bay on the critical link between ecological status of coastal ecosystems and vulnerabilities of coastal communities to the effects of climate change. second, from the information to be shared by our scientists, it is hoped that lgu and companies through their corporate social responsibility programs/projects work hand in hand to plan out adaption and mitigation strategies.
the ultimate aim of the activity then is to firm up a public-private partnership in sustainable development.
the event organizers are expecting 100 participants from the different stakeholders around batangas bay. this session is also in partnership with the provincial government environment and natural resources office (pgenro-batangas) and the batangas bay coastal resource management foundation.
