The program commenced with opening remarks and introductions, setting the stage for insightful presentations. Faculty members from the ESM department shared their expertise and perspectives on critical environmental issues. This was followed by presentations from the NSU ESM student body and the NSU Earth Club, highlighting their initiatives and involvement in environmental conservation efforts.
