The Environmental
Awareness campaign started in August
2002 with a grant from the German
Development Service (DED) for the
Project “Environmental
Awarenss Campaign for the
Preservation of wildlife through
Puppet Theater, Literature and
Interactive Role Play”.
This was a joint project of FOREST,
Inc., NFEFI-Biodiversity Center and
Animo Puppet Theater. We conducted
seminars and workshops and were
involved in the production of the Abyan sa Kagulangan and Sea
Kingdom. We conducted several
puppet theater shows in West Negros
College and other places. However,
we just borrow the puppets and the
stage from Animo Puppet Theater.
In 2005, we were able to
get a grant from DED worth twenty
five thousand pesos (P 25,000.00)
for the purchase of materials for
the establishment of puppet theatre
in West Negros College. Our shows
were on Ecological Waste Management
and we were able to stage puppet
shows in West Negros College and
other schools.
In July 2003, we were
able to get a grant from DED worth P
97,537.00 for the project “Promotion
of Environmental Education at West
Negros College”. The grant was used
for the purchase of computer,
printer, scanner, overhead projector
and sound system. From this grant,
we were able to organize a pool of
Resource Persons and facilitators
and conduct seminars and workshops
for different colleges/departments
within West Negros College.
The Project TEEN was
implemented in West Negros College
in June 2006 through a proposal
submitted by Mr. Allan Geagoni,
Chair, VAED Department , College of
Education. With this, a seminar
with an Ecogarden Tour was
conducted yearly for all VAED
students. Seminar with an
Ecogarden Tour was also done for
some High School students.
This proposal aims to
intensify Environmental Awareness
Campaign thru seminars and workshops
not only in West Negros University
but other schools specially high
school students.
