𝐏𝐚𝐰𝐢𝐤𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧-𝐮𝐩🐢🌊

On the morning of February 1, 2026, the sun cast a warm glow over the shores of Barangay Labac, Naic, Cavite. The Mountaineering & Exploration Society of Adamson University (MESAU) joined the dedicated volunteer patrollers of the Labac Pawikan Sanctuary for a pawikan release and cleanup drive — a day where care and action came together.

Since its founding in 2009 by the former Barangay Captain of Labac, the sanctuary has grown into a close-knit community protecting pawikans and guiding hatchlings safely to the sea.

Armed with sacks and determination, we collected litter along the shoreline, making the beach safer for the little turtles. Then came the magical moment: watching tiny pawikans crawl across the sand and disappear into the waves. Each turtle’s journey reminded us that even small acts of care can create ripples of hope.

This day wasn’t just about releasing turtles. It was about teamwork, compassion, and the shared effort to protect life — a story of hope we were proud to be part of.

Innovation Meets Sustainability at CCIT GreenSpark 2026!

Adamson University College of Computing and Information Technology- (CCIT) successfully conducted the CCIT GreenSpark: Pitching Competition for ECO-FALCON–Aligned Initiatives today, February 11, 2026, at the COPOTY Hall. GreenSpark aims to encourage innovative, sustainable, and impact-driven project ideas aligned with the ECO-FALCON framework, promoting environmental stewardship, climate action, and green innovation through practical and scalable solutions.

The event opened with an overview of the ECO-FALCON Program delivered by Engr. Prex Cayayan from the Office for Campus Sustainability (OCS).

The pitch experts were Dr. Wilber B. Sabado (University of Makati), Engr. Mia Rizza Palaypayon (Grundfos), and Engr. Ian Charl Nico V. Tubban (AdUNEST), who provided constructive feedback on sustainability-driven innovations and shared industry perspectives on responsible and impactful technology use.
Vice President for Academic Affairs, Dr. Rosula S.J. Reyes, also graced the event with an inspirational message, encouraging all attendees to pursue excellence in projects where innovation and sustainability converge.

Meanwhile, CCIT Dean Dr. Leonard L. Alejandro shared that GreenSpark aims to achieve three key objectives: ignite individual consciousness and awareness, align CCIT projects with Adamson University’s 5-Year Sustainability Plan, and spark opportunities for innovative computing solutions that can be transformed into full-blown research, patents, or incubation projects.

Out of 76 entries, seven finalists presented their innovative computing solutions during the live pitch. The winners are as follows:

Champion: AeroSmart – Smart Energy-Saving Climate Control for Sustainable Campuses
1st Runner-Up: Sappy – Gamified Environmental Stewardship through AI-Driven Waste Segregation and Reforestation using YOLOv11

In the pursuit of fostering a culture of sustainability and responsible governance, AdU-PULITIKA successfully held “𝘽𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙢𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙂𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙂𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚: 𝘾𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥” last October 30, 2025, at the BA Multimedia Hall. The event aimed to deepen the understanding of the interconnectedness between environmental stewardship and good governance, emphasizing that true progress must always take root in responsibility and collective action.
In a time where environmental concerns continue to grow, the event served as a timely reminder that sustainable governance is not an isolated concept but a framework that links policy, participation, and preservation.
A significant highlight of the activity was an enlightening lecture delivered by 𝗗𝗿. 𝗥𝗮𝘂𝗹 𝗘𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗼𝘀𝗮, who discussed the foundations of sustainable governance and its application in the Philippine context. Dr. Espinosa presented key concepts and theories on sustainable development frameworks, private and indigenous environmental practices, and case studies that demonstrated how local and national efforts must align in addressing environmental challenges.
His discussion underscored that sustainability is not a one-time endeavor, but a continuing responsibility anchored in informed leadership and conscious decision-making.

Talks of growth didn’t end on paper, they sprouted in pots. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 were handed to the offices of the CELA Department, bringing the essence of stewardship where it matters most: where people work, learn, and grow. This embodies the shared duty to nurture not only the spaces we occupy but also the values we carry as responsible members of the community. Through this initiative, AdU-PULITIKA reaffirmed that small actions, when nurtured collectively, can lead to profound and lasting change.
Truly, 𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙖𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙣𝙜 𝙗𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙮 𝙖𝙮 𝙢𝙖𝙜𝙠𝙖𝙪𝙜𝙣𝙖𝙮. The lessons of stewardship, accountability, and sustainability are threads that bind us all—leaders, students, and citizens alike. For when we lead with purpose and govern with compassion, we do not only protect the environment; we cultivate a future where growth and goodness coexist in harmony.
