The Heritage Club of Don Bosco College was happy to associate in an engaging webinar conducted by the WWF- India Volunteers based on the mangrove ecosystem. The webinar was organized by WWF India and Godrej Boyce Mfg. Ltd. & Co. in association with Don Bosco College, Panjim on 18th December 2020. It was a session conducted over the span of 3 hours and was attended by all the members of the Heritage Club of Don Bosco College as well as other students.

Nikil Jacob and Shashank Bhosale played a very important part in the success of this webinar. Thanks goes to Nikil Jacob for aiding in the creation of this session and Shashank Bhosale who not only shared the importance of mangroves and its part played in the heritage of Goa but also made it relatable to the students.

It was a great opportunity to learn, understand and appreciate the magnificence of this rich fragile habitat allowing the students to better understand their own impact on the world around them. The webinar also gave the students an opportunity to be included in a National Initiative done across all states along the coastal belt region of India.

It was an interactive session with Q&A, live polls and fresh discussions. The students were excited to be a part of such an initiative and Don Bosco College will collaborate with the organisation to have many more sessions for their students. The Session was open to all age groups, with No registration fee.

This webinar is part of #MagicalMangroves, a nationwide campaign to raise awareness and conservation action for mangroves. It is a new collaboration started in Goa with Don Bosco College and will include other institutes in the course of time as well.
