THE FINAL VIRTUAL SESSION EIGHT IS HERE 🌿

From reflection to action, from values to lived care — we come together for our last virtual gathering of Pag-atiman.

This session invites us to look back at everything we’ve learned and ask: How do we carry care forward? How do our values show up in the choices we make, the service we give, and the futures we help shape?

Join us as we channel care through values and action, grounding our learnings in commitment — to ourselves, to others, and to the world we share.

🗓 May 25, 2026
⏰ 7:00–8:30 PM
📍 Google Meet

Let this not be an ending, but a beginning. ✨

The PAG-ATIMAN: The Boholano Youth Wellness and Environmental Summer Camp 2026 is co-organized by Kabiling Lunhaw , the Rising Alliance of Youth for Transformation (formerly Angat GenC, and the Greenpeace Philippines Bohol Local Group; in partnership with Plastic Free Bohol, the Bohol Island Geopark, the UP Diliman College of Science Student Council, and Negrosanon Initiative for Climate and the Environment; and supported by the Provincial Youth Development Office of Bohol.

For Plastic Free Bohol's 10th year anniversary, we gathered at Libaong Beach in Libaong, Panglao, for a beach cleanup and removed 63 kilos of non-biodegradable waste from the beach. 🌊💪

Daghang salamat to our amazing volunteers. 💚

While beach cleanups are our signature initiative, Plastic Free Bohol actively campaigns against single-use plastics through awareness campaigns, promotion of a zero-waste lifestyle, dialogues with business establishments, and policy advocacy at both local and national levels.

Broadly, our initiatives aim to address plastic pollution, specifically marine plastic pollution, against the backdrop of the Philippines being one of the world's worst marine polluters.

Plastic Free Bohol’s advocacy intersects with other socio-environmental issues, such as climate action, environmental justice, and clean energy, among others, and seeks to create meaningful, inclusive, and sustainable change for all.

Every little action adds up. Let’s keep protecting what we love! 🌍✨

Can you believe it’s been 10 years? What started as a simple mission to keep our beaches clean has turned into a decade of pure heart and community grit. 🌊
Looking back, it’s been such a wild, beautiful ride. We’ve gone from picking up plastic on the shore to demanding corporate accountability to sitting down with policy makers to talk real change. We’ve shared our souls through poetry readings and watched the next generation find their voice in our youth workshops. 🥹💙

Most importantly, we’ve looked out for each other. Whether it was getting relief goods out during the pandemic or helping our fishermen get back on the water with new bangkas after Odette, this movement has always been about the people. 🥹

To every volunteer, partner, and friend who has been part of the Plastic Free Bohol family, thank you for a decade of making waves. 💙

Padayon! 🥂

Tomorrow marks 10 years of Plastic Free Bohol. We believe the best way to honor a decade of advocacy is to get our hands in the sand. Join us at Libaong Beach in Panglao as we celebrate this milestone by doing exactly what we started this movement for. 💙

We’ll be there at 8:00 AM. Hope to sea you!

On March 28, 2026, we cleaned up Biking Beach in Dauis, Bohol, removing 144 kg (23 sacks) of non-biodegradable waste from the beach. 🌊💪

Daghang salamat to our amazing volunteers. 💚

Every little action adds up. Let’s keep protecting what we love! 🌍✨

Until our next cleanup - puhon!



P.S. Sadly, much of the trash appears to be food and beverage containers/packaging left by beachgoers. We appeal to picnickers to take their trash with them (leave no trace) and to our local officials to implement more stringent waste management practices in our beaches.
