Env Group Continues to Advocate to Youth, Panguma on Its 6th Year

An environmental camp was held with youth leaders, farmers and advocates at Eliah’s Farm, Barangay Alangilan, Bacolod City, last March 20 to 21, 2026.

In its sixth year, “PANGUMA: Forest Resilience and Sustainable Agriculture: Pathways to Stronger Economies,” was spearheaded by the Group of Environmental Socialists Inc. (GOES) to educate and enlighten participants of the importance of forests on the ongoing global crisis alongside the importance of agriculture, organic food sustenance and behavioral resilience to economic recession.

GOES, which embody and push further anti-corruption against the government, continues to remind local government units(LGUs), as well as the recent participants of the event to continue fighting for clean food and uphold a strong-willed mindset for the protection of Negros forests and its agricultural environment.

Randy James Rojo, founder of GOES, Inc. pressed that the advocacy has been fighting for farmers and the youth against environmental malpractices to keep on a legacy of environmental stewardship for the future advocates of nature.

“We continue to guide and carefully watch all environmentally-related movements, making sure that these involvements are for the good and the benefit of all, especially for the youth and our farmers,” Rojo said.

The organizing team of the current event includes Pastor Ariel Garzon, Rich Mark Jonas, Marc Antonio, Kristine Alonso, Randy James Rojo, and Eliah’s Farm owner Dennis Berdin.* (Kristine G. Alonso)
