Apayao, UNESCO recognized forest conservation
By Nidz Godino
“As stewards of Apayaos Biosphere Reserve, we aspire to inspire other educational hubs for conservation and sustainable development across Philippines and globally,” Apayao Governor Elias Bulut Jr., said Apayao province received international recognition as UNESCO Biosphere Reserve for its outstanding efforts in conserving its forests and natural environment.
Announcement came during 36th session of International Coordinating Council of the Man and Biosphere Programme (ICC MAB) of UNESCO on July 5, 2024, held in Agadir, Morocco.
Award marks Apayao as protected area dedicated to biodiversity conservation.
Journey towards becoming UNESCO biosphere reserve began when Apayao Province discovered first active Philippine Eagle nest in Luzon within its forests.
Discovery spurred Provincial Government of Apayao into action, collaborating with organizations such as Philippine Eagle Foundation (PEF) and United States Forest Service (USFS) to navigate rigorous UNESCO requirements through preparation, training and documentation.
Efforts suffered delays during COVID-19 pandemic as restrictions hampered many of needed processes.
Bulut upon accepting UNESCO award, described it as monumental achievement not only for Apayao but for entire nation.
