The University of Bohol (UB) recently took part in the International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) Day last September 21, 2019, at different coastal areas in the province.

The said activity is held in observance of Presidential Proclamation No. 470 which declares the third Sunday of September of each year as ICC Day.

The university was represented during the cleanup at the Bellevue Resort, Doljo, Panglao area by the Mr. and Miss UB Personality candidates, UB Supreme Student Government Officers and the Campus Student Organizations of UB.

Meanwhile, the UB/RPC Alumni Association, Inc. and the UB Reserve Officers Training Corps cadets and officers conducted their cleanup activities at Cainggit Beach and Balong Balong Beach in Tagbilaran City, respectively.

The International Coastal Cleanup is the most extensive volunteer effort for the health of the world’s oceans. Around the globe, people join forces in removing trash from beaches, coasts, rivers, waterways and underwater dive sites and record information on the debris collected.
