“It
is very unusual for me to write a letter to campaign team before the start of
the university phase. However, I feel the compelling need to express my
personal satisfaction to the extraordinary achievement made in Panabo City
Pride Campaign”. This
is the statement that highlighted the open letter of Mr. Fel Caesar Cadiz, the
Pride Program Manager of RARE, to the Panabo City Pride Team for the
exceptional achievement of the team within the first 7.5 months of
implementation of the campaign. Mr. Cadiz also gave special mention to the
results of the hard work and dedication of the team on the campaign that
contributed much on the achievement of activities in the research plan. Series
of reinforcement workshops to capacitate the Fishery Law Enforcers Task Force
(FLETF), constitution of a management committee for the Cagangohan Fish
Sanctuary, finalization of three candidate flagship species, and remarking of
the Cagangohan Sanctuary were only few of the team’s achievements. CF Dr.
Girley Gumanao, DNSC’s PRIDE, headed the team.
To keep the team become superb in
campaigning for sustainable fishing in Panabo City, Dr. Gumanao will again
participating the 2nd University Phase of the RARE Pride for the 2012-2014
Pride Conservation Fellows. The training will run for seven (7) weeks from June
12 to July 31 of 2013. This training phase has three (3) exciting developments
as shared by Director Brooke Sadowsky. First, the training phase will happen in
two locations. The first 2. 5 weeks will
be spent in Bohol and transfer to Cebu for the remainder of the training to
allow the participants experience the change in scenery as well as the greater
access to creative resources of conceptualizing and drafting campaign materials
during the second half of the training phase. Second, there is a multiple
opportunities for Pride Campaign Team members to join. This allows each CF to
choose the 1 or 2 weeks when they would like a member of their team to join.
Last but not the least, supervisors of the CF will be invited to join the last
week of the Training Phase.
