The CLEAR partners with the Global Nature Fund hosted the 10th Living Lakes Conference
in May 2005 at Tagaytay City. The Conference, which theme was
"The Lake and its People: Sustainable Development in Densely
Populated Lake Regions", was centered around the interaction
between the lake and its people. The discussions were focused on
how communities in densely populated lake regions could achieve a
balance between complex resource uses and sustainable development.
Numerous best practice examples and case studies about sound lake
stewardship were presented in the conference. Also
introduced and discussed were transferable solutions and
strategies in order to assist
communities to play their role as responsible stewards of lake
ecosystems.
The conference was attended by representatives from the Living Lakes
Network members and local wetland managers and management
advocates. The participants had the opportunity to
learn more on how lake stewardship issues are being addressed by the various Laguna de Bay
stakeholders during the field trips to its lakeshore municipalities.
