This assistance has been provided under successive Memorandum of Understandings (MoU) between PGSL, Coral Cay Conservation (CCC) and the Philippine Reef & Rainforest Conservation Foundation, Inc.

Three strategies have been identified as appropriate for achieving this objective, namely: 1 - Conservation education for the fisherfolk, schools, colleges, and Local Government Units (LGUs) of the Province 2 - Capacity building of technical skills amongst the employees of the PGSL 3 - Resource appraisal of the current status of the coral reefs of the bay From September 2002 to April 2004, the SLCRCP was based near the town of Malitbog, from where CCC dive teams assessed the north-eastern and north-western reefs. In May 2004, the project moved to the Municipality of Padre Burgos, from where the reefs of the southwest and Limasawa Island could be assessed.

After surveying the site last summer (2017), CCC analyzed the results in order to propose the most ideal area in which to establish an MPA. By considering fish and invertebrate diversity and abundance, in addition to scrutinizing commercially important species and interactions between reef organisms and substrates, it was deemed that although the surveyed site showed signs of fishing impacts, it was in a good position for improvement both biologically and socio-economically; should an MPA be established.

Physical safety of these a temporary roofing. Photo by: UNHCR Photo by: UNHCR IDPs is at risk. Photo by: UNHCR HIGHLIGHTS • Identification and profiling of internally displaced persons (IDPs) who are moving out the affected areas is urgently needed. Report state that most of these IDPs are leaving through airports and seaports with ( if any ) minimal controls. This situation increases the risk that women and children (especially if unaccompanied ) are exposed to human trafficking. • Power remains cut off in some parts of Regions IV-B, V, VI, VII, and VIII. This lack of electricity/lighting increases protection risk among IDPs both in evacuation centers and house-based.
