𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊 | The Eastern Visayas State University - Multipurpose Cooperative (EVSU-MPC) actively participated in the Cooperatives in Tacloban City's Tree Planting and Nurturing Activity.
This green initiative was spearheaded by the City Cooperatives Development and Livelihood Assistance Office (CCDLAO) in partnership with the City Agriculturist Office, coinciding with the celebration of Cooperative Month this October.
EVSU-MPC’s active involvement in this joint environmental initiative reinforces the university's overarching vision and strategic thrust toward establishing itself as the National University for Climate Change and Disaster Resiliency (NURCA), driving grassroots action for environmental preservation.
By actively participating in urban reforesting and tree care, the cooperative upholds the core cooperative principle of "Concern for Community," proving that financial and social enterprises play a critical role in mitigating climate impact and safeguarding local ecosystems.
This initiative directly aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13: Climate Action by fostering local climate resilience, and SDG 15: Life on Land through the preservation and nurturing of green ecosystems.
