Velasco, was very positive to extend the necessary assistance for the completion of activities of the IWMP-BSRIP. On top of this collaboration, Dean Velasco asked for the drafting of Memorandum of Agreement to have a clearer understanding on the roles and responsibilities of the parties to be involved. The members of SDG 14 and faculty members of CF-CLSU also expressed their positive outlook on this future collaboration with NIA-UPRIIS.
