Coastal conservation project renewed

THE United States (US) Peace Corps and Rare Philippines, an international nongovernment organization, recently signed a new five-year memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly support sustainable coastal resource and fisheries management.

The US Embassy in the Philippines said 29 local government units (LGUs) from across the Philippines joined the event on March 18, which coincided with the week-long US Peace Corps-led training on community-based coastal resource management.
