ROP: Strengthening Community Outreach Education and Awareness Programs to Promote biodviersity & Resource Management
Marine Environment Education involving all the schools in Palau from Elementary School level, high school and the college.
The PICRC is primarily a research organization and is delving into sharing its knowledge and materials with the general public through mainly the formal education system at all levels. This Project will enable this linkage as a boost to initiate this partnership between research and public information.
Activities will include provision of expertise and information to students, teachers and community at large through interesting innovative/fun workshops and field trips and provision of educational materials on marine life in the very rich marine environment of Palau. Information will be documented and maintained by the organization where such information are available to the schools and communities.
