Relative to the holding of the 2003 Youth for Environment Summer (YES) Camp last April 30-May 4, 2003, one of the concrete resolutions and actions adopted by the entire delegation from all over the country is the establishment of a school-based co-curricular organization which will serve as a significant venue for students’ actions and movements toward safeguarding, protecting and conserving the environment for future generations.

 

In view thereof, the Department of Education (DepED), in partnership with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), establishes the Youth for Environment in Schools Organization (Yes-O) as the only recognized co-curricular environmental club or organization in the schools and consolidates all other environmental and/or ecology clubs or organizations in school with main and primary programs or projects for the environment or ecology in the said Organization.
