The event coincided with the month-long Philippine Maritime and Archipelagic Nation Awareness Month (ManaMo 2023).<\/p>

Philippine Consul General Maria Lourdes M.

Following her was an address by Mara Baviera, Climate Resilience Lead at the Merri-Bek City Council who engaged the children on climate awareness. Joseph Yap, founder and co-owner of \u201cZero Tag,\u201d showed the audience the current state of marine pollution in the Philippines, and showcased the marine-friendly bag that they developed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
