In creating a culture of peace and addressing sustainable development challenges, UNESCO aims to cultivate the generation and application of scientific knowledge among its Member States. At UNACOM, we facilitate access to UNESCO’s international programmes in the sciences, such as the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC), Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme, and International Geoscience and Geoparks Programme (IGGP), among others.

Through this sector, the Commission aims to contribute to the following SDGs: 11 - Sustainable Cities and Communities, 13 - Climate Action, 14 - Life Below Water, and 15 - Life On Land. With the overarching vision of the 2023-2028 Philippine Development Plan (PDP), UNACOM targets grassroots-inspired cultural heritage and biodiversity protection and conservation, as well as multi-stakeholder partnerships for SDGs promotion.

    The province of Antique gets to showcase its rich marine biodiversity when it hosts the 1st International Sports Fishing Tournament in May. “Sports fishing is another tourism product that we are promoting. When they go to Antique, they can experience fishing onboard a fishing boat,” said Flord Nicson Calawag, president of the Antique Eco-Tourism Association (AETA). The tournament, set on May 2-3, has two categories: amateur and professional anglers and registered municipal fisherfolk. Participants may use traditional trolling and bait fishing.
