Estuario Weekly Update

Workshops, field trips, employment opportunities and a new campaign: below is the Friday, June 16, 2023 edition of the Estuario Weekly Update.

This Father’s Day weekend, we celebrate the fathers of Puerto Rico, who are the guiding light in the lives of your children and families. Your unwavering love, dedication and commitment shape the future of our Island.

Con el estuario convivimos

On Thursday, June 15, 2023, we launched the education campaign, Con el estuario convivimos, aimed at raising awareness about the importance of investing responsibly in the restoration and reconstruction of the San Juan Bay Estuary.

The campaign features children and young people as spokespersons, and calls on leaders with the decision-making power to guarantee economic resources, to carry out responsible investments for the present and future generations that inhabit this ecosystem.

The campaign is run by the agency Knockout Studios. Its execution includes television, radio, billboards, digital media, social networks and press.

Watch a teaser of what’s coming, now in https://estuario.org/, follow us on our networks, and share it with friends and family.

See photos of the launch event, celebrated Thursday, June 15, at Distrito T-Mobile, here.
