Students from Hiroshima visits BBBRMCI


Thirteen students from Hiroshima University headed by their professor Dr. Masahiro Yamao visit BBBRMCI CRM projects last August 23-24, 2011. The study tour facilitated by ICAN Foundation was a success and expose the students in various fields of fisheries and coastal management activities like mangrove planting, traditional fishing, fish processing projects and snorkeling in coral reef areas. What is remarkable with the students visit is their opportunity to live with host fishing families, interact with the household members and some members of the community in Dangulaan, Anilao.

Mayor Ma. Teresa F. Debuque and the LGU personnel from Anilao and Banate hosted the short visit and 7 host families provided accommodations for the group. BBBRMCI facilitated the whole duration of their visit.
