DAVAO CITY -- Management of the city’s marine protected areas (MPA) is getting a boost with German funding for a project that is intended to strengthen a campaign to conserve marine resource the community level.
“I hope the city will take advantage of this opportunity so that we will be able to properly manage our MPAs. I believe more support from GIZ will be coming once the first project will be successful,” said Councilor Marissa S. Abella, chair of the committee on agriculture.
Ms. Abella said the project, called Strengthening, will also contribute to the campaign against illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing (IUUF).
