Vesna Foundation

The trip to the Philippines allowed us to visit and meet members of the Vesna Foundation who are doing exception work in Panglao, Bohol and surrounding areas. Vesna is an environmental conservation group that focuses on the protection and preservation of the biodiversity or the marine environment on the island of Panglao. The group works with local communities, businesses, tourism industry and leaders to carry out research activities and provide workshops and dialogue sessions with government authorities to collaborate on environmental awareness. 

Vesna's work includes: protection of coral reefs; education; eco-diving; monitoring and root waste water treatment projects. Isa Mundo Foundation will continue discussions with Vesna Conservation staff and leaders to find ways to collaborate on projects that are of mutual interest. As we look to learn more and partner with non profit organizations in the Philippines, we will commit to meeting like minded organizations that align with Isa Mundo's objectives on environmental assessment and sustainability. We hope to meet up with Vesna again in 2025 and begin to collaborate on research and preliminary project.
