 In this photo, our team is actively collecting data in Barangay Mindoro. Armed with notebooks, surveys, and digital tools, we engage with locals to understand the key issues in their community. The atmosphere is exploding with teamwork as we carefully and accurately document observations, ensuring accuracy in our research.

One of the most crucial parts of our research was interviewing residents and stakeholders about environmental awareness in Barangay Mindoro’s coastal areas. In this image, we are seen speaking with fishermen, local officials, and community members, listening to their insights about the challenges they face. Through these discussions, we gained firsthand knowledge of issues such as waste management, marine pollution, and conservation efforts. Their responses provided valuable perspectives that shaped the direction of our study.

Continuing our interviews, we focused on how the residents perceive and address environmental concerns. We documented their thoughts on climate change, coastal erosion, and the impact of human activities on marine life. Some expressed concerns over declining fish populations, while others shared initiatives they have started to promote sustainability. This interaction was eye-opening, highlighting the importance of local involvement in protecting natural resources.

After gathering all necessary information, our team moved on to the coding phase. In this image, we are seen working on our laptops, coding and categorizing the responses from our interviews. We carefully organized the data, identifying patterns and key themes to draw meaningful conclusions. This stage was critical in transforming raw data into structured insights that would support our findings.

Finally, our research journey reflects in this moment, our team presenting the results of our Community-Based Research. In this photo, we confidently share our findings, key points and recommendations. We showcase graphs, case studies, and community insights, emphasizing the importance of collaborative efforts in addressing environmental concerns. This presentation marks the completion of our research journey, a testament to our dedication to understanding and contributing to the community.
