Pasig City, Philippines; November 19, 2019–Epson Philippines, – in collaboration with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Environmental Management Bureau, announced today the launch of the 2nd Eco Vision Short Film Competition for university students.
This year, the Eco Vision inter-school video-making contest aims to tap the creativity of university students in raising public understanding of environmental conservation through short documentaries.
Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, transformed by-products, waste materials or unwanted products into new materials of better quality and environmental value.
“It is our honor to once again partner with DENR-EMB for the second year of the Eco Vision Short Film Competition. With the help of the upcycling heroes who featured in the students’ entries, we want to inspire the public into action and let them know that there are different ways to become more active in advocating for the conservation of the environment,” said Donna Ferro, brand and communications head of Epson Philippines.
The Eco Vision short film competition is open to all students at any year level and degree or course from colleges and universities in NCR, Region III, and Region IV-A during the period of the competition.
We will choose ten documentaries as the finalists of the competition and will serve as informative materials for the Environmental Education and Information Division (EEID) of DENR-EMB. EEID’s mission is to advance environmental education in the Philippines and disseminate environmental information to the DENR-EMB regional offices and the public.
