Livelihoods, Runner-Up: Crab Gatherer By Danilo O. Victoriano Jr

Bakhawan Eco-Park in Kalibo, Aklan is a powerful story of nature’s revival and community resilience. Once a polluted shoreline, it has transformed into a thriving 220-hectare mangrove forest—protecting against climate threats and sustaining local livelihoods. This award-winning eco-park now stands as a symbol of hope, where families like the father and son in this photo enjoy the bounty of restored ecosystems.
Oooh, fighting climate change.
Eat a bag of diques.
