Manila, Philippines — Since the launch of East Zone concessionaire Manila Water’s watershed management program in 2006, Manila Water has partnered with the public and private sector, such
as the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System, various local government units, indigenous people residing in watershed communities, and other stakeholders for the implementation of its watershed management program.
Manila Water, as a water and wastewater service provider, recognizes the need for water security for the current and future generations, and at the same time, care of the environment where water comes from. The Company anchors on nature-based, sustainable solutions and environmental stewardship of key watersheds that it depends on, such as watershed protection and rehabilitation.“We also move to protect life on land through watershed protection and management programs.
As of December 2022, a total of 1,462,945 trees were planted and nurtured by Manila Water in different parts of the Philippines. In the East Zone, the Company’s watershed protection efforts focus on the Ipo Watershed, La Mesa Watershed, Upper Marikina Watershed, and General Nakar Watershed. The Company has also been supporting the MWSS’ Annual Million Trees Challenge since its launch in 2017.
