Excerpt
Seventeen years after the tragic oil spill in Guimaras Island’s waters, a service organization, partnering with Iloilo’s top maritime school, is still pushing to bring back its vitality by reintroducing corals to its ecosystem. Junior Chamber International (JCI) Regatta initiated its CORAL Project: Guimaras Island Coral Restoration Program last March 22, in honor of World Water Day, and in line with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Number 14 (Life under Water) of the United Nations.
