Through adaptive strategies, we hurdle the challenges of changing environments. We aim for a wealthy nation, not only in economic resources, but also in biodiversity.
“The institute’s initiatives toward sustainability are wide and varied. from studying industrial tree plantation species and non-wood forest products as substitute to premium tree species, to making use of agro-forest wastes that would have otherwise been discarded,” Cabangon pointed out. Science Secretary Renato U. Solidum Jr. applauded the recipients of the Narra Awards for their impactful contribution in the attainment not only of DOST-FPRDI’s but of the Department’s strategic objectives, particularly the institutionalization of sustainability.
