The establishment of the NICER program for sea cucumber in MSU Naawan supports the harmonized National R&D Agenda 2017-2022 for sea cucumber. The program would enhance past and current R&D efforts in sea cucumber production for both food and livelihood of coastal fisherfolks in Mindanao.
The program will provide venue for training researchers and technical staff of other HEIs, regional BFAR offices, and LGUs, and also entrepreneurs and people’s organizations as potential beneficiaries. Moreover, the NICER can be a strategic platform for IEC and public awareness of conserving biodiversity and sustainable sea cucumber fisheries.
