Held on June 9, 2026, Legacy in Leaf introduced 1st Year BS Biology students to the inspiring journey of CYB's Balakat-based innovations and the role of science in creating sustainable, community-centered products.
The seminar traced the development of CYB's pioneering products, Balakat Tea and Balakat Soap, before highlighting the Balakat Nutribar, an award-winning ISIP project that continues to be featured in exhibitions and competitions. Participants also learned about Balakat Cookies, a locally inspired innovation first introduced during Habigkis 2026.
Through engaging discussions and hands-on preparation of Balakat Cookies and Nutribars, students gained valuable insights into research, product development, and scientific entrepreneurship. More importantly, they were encouraged to see how simple ideas can grow into meaningful innovations that serve both people and the environment.
The Coalition of Young Biologists extends its sincere gratitude to the City Youth Development Office (CYDO) for its support in making this event possible and for continuously empowering youth-led initiatives in science, innovation, and community development.
