For 12 years, the Regional Integrated Coastal Resource Management Center (RIC-XI) through Davao Oriental State University (DOrSU) has been the hub for biodiversity monitoring and research, training, and demonstration activities and the focal point in undertaking the Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) campaign in coordination with the Convention on Biodiversity’s efforts in Communication, Education, and Public Awareness (CEPA).

In celebration of World Wildlife Day in 2024, we conducted an IEC campaign entitled "REthinking Impact: An IEC on Marine Conservation and Regenerative Development." It's grounded in the urgent need to address the critical challenges facing marine ecosystems and wildlife conservation. The target participants of the said IEC campaign are the students of Barangay Dahican, Bobon, and Tamisan. This activity will be implemented over three consecutive weeks, targeting six schools.

We successfully conducted our first week of the IEC campaign on March 13, 2024, at the Benito G. Rabat Executive Elementary School and Don Luis Rabat Sr. Memorial School. The activity commenced with informative sessions and interactive presentations at two beneficial schools in Dahican.

This activity was organized by DORSU - BSES GreenPulse in collaboration with the Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences—Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science Program, DORSU Regional Integrated Coastal Resource Management Center XI, DORSU Center for Futures Thinking and Regenerative Development, DORSU M2P2 Research Program, Mama Earth Foundation, DENR-Community of Environment and Natural Resources Office (Mati), BFAR-Provincial Fisheries Office (Davao Oriental), MASONIC District R-XI (Davao Oriental), City of Mati LGU, rrreefs, Sangguniang Kabataan-Barangay Dahican, Project Para Sa Bayan, City ENRO, Sawom Davao Oriental and Coast Guard Station (Davao Oriental).

As we reflect on its achievements, it is evident that RIC-XI will continue to inspire future generations to safeguard our precious coastal resources for years to come.

With a late night format and full of comedy, we present our biology show. We have Stand Up Comedy, desk jokes and an interview. Every episode with a different topic. Latin comedy for latin audiences.

To celebrate the World Wildlife Day, the PRAXIS team visited a local school. To teach the pupils about the importance of wildlife conservation, we build birdhouses together made out of used milk and juice boxes.

This orientation activity aims to provide an overview on the features and functionalities of the eCITES PH to wildlife permittees. eCITES PH is an online permitting system developed by the Bureau with the assistance from the DENR-ADB/GEF IWT Project to facilitate the processing of permit applications for import, export, and re-export of terrestrial wildlife listed under the said Convention. Annually, over 1000 CITES Permits are issued by BMB through manual process for commercial, personal, and scientific purposes. Birds, reptiles, mammals, insects, and plants including by-products and derivatives such as handbags, shoes, watchstraps were among the wildlife specimens subject for international trade. With that, the automation of permitting system is seen as crucial for the issuance of CITES Permits to manage and regulate the international trade in wildlife. The automation of CITES processes enforces regulations, increases transparency, and reduces opportunities for corruption and use of fraudulent documents. Likewise, the eCITES PH will help applicants keep track of their applications online.

We're talking about alien species: who are they? Where they come from? Why are we seeing an exponential increase? What is biodiversity? Why is it important to maintain it? Some showcases will then be displayed with some aquatic species and a QR will allow you to find out more. A small exhibition will allow you to learn more about it

The UN General Assembly declared March 3 as World Wildlife Day. This date was chosen because the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) was signed on this date in 1973. This year, the program focuses on developments in the digital world: how digital technologies and services can lead to the protection of wild animals and the coexistence of humans and wild animals for present and future generations in an increasingly connected world.
We are preparing to celebrate it this year with zookeeper's performances combined with feeding, handicrafts, and educational programs with our cooperating partners.
