Hobart launch: introducing Raz Salvarita
Panay Island
"We hope that this can create an impact, not just on the island but for the whole of the Philippines as well. So thank you so much for your willingness to embrace this work, together with us."
Panay Island is one of the larger islands of the archipelago of the Philippines and we are really happy to be part of this movement. Here in the Philippines and Southeast Asia for the past several months of engagement, we are glad to take on this work, as well as eventually sharing in public the beauty of Panay Island, among other islands in the Philippines.
Panay Island consists of four provinces:
The north-west part of the island has the Central Panay Mountain Range, which is a very critical biodiversity area for the island, and the country as a whole. And in the north-west, Panay Peninsula Natural Park is also a very diverse area that needs a focal point for conservation.
In the past many decades, the island and the country itself have been engaged with a lot of exploration and exploitation.
Communities, individuals, and local organisations are doing their part and work there. And we hope that through the work of Kuno and EarthMob, we can feature the beautiful places and important key biodiversity sites to be protected, to be fully appreciated and deeply loved by the island people of Panay.
I am personally and deeply happy and excited to kickstart this project. So far we have a number of contributors that are willing to share their works through their writings and photographs. And we hope that we can also conduct environmental education programs and partnerships with community organisations and local NGOs.
These programs would work around the conservation of flora and fauna on the island. We have a number of networks and friends in the conservation circle and we hope that we can be involved and engage with them as well, in this very important work.
