Antique student ambassadors back environmental preservation

Secondary students in the province of Antique have offered to act as environmental ambassadors to support the campaign for environmental protection and conservation.

According to information officer Mavidel Otayde of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office (DENR-PENRO), “the ambassadors had been conducting information and education campaigns (IEC) and initiating projects for environmental protection and conservation in their schools and communities” on Tuesday.

She said that 12 junior and senior high school students, the majority of whom attended the University of Antique (UA), had been serving as volunteer ambassadors for the environment and natural resources (ENR).

As ambassadors, they publish blog posts on social media and take part in clean-up and tree-planting events organized by DENR and PENRO.

Otayde claimed that as some of the senior high school ambassadors will already be attending college the next academic year, the DENR-PENRO hosted a culminating exercise and workshop on January 14 that was led by the Dulungan Youth, a youth-led environmental organization in the province.

The DENR-PENRO presented certificates to the ambassadors during the climax activity as a thank-you for their one-year of volunteer service.

We’re currently seeking additional secondary kids that want to represent ENR, according to Otayde.

With the aim that they will be able to influence their peers and take action to support environmental preservation and conservation campaigns, she said they intend to have ambassadors in every town.

Those who are interested can cooperate with the DENR-PENRO or local Community ENROs in the towns of Belison and Culasi, Otayde added.
