Besides transplanting coral reefs, students from IMTI UI also conducted mangrove planting, releasing hatchlings, and cleaning the environment to preserve the underwater ecosystem.

"Of course, their activities are precious and the impact is not now, but for the next 5-10 years. Hopefully, it can be transmitted to other communities, by loving cleanliness and protecting the environment," he expressed.

Smiling Coral Indonesia and  Pramuka Island Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis) Chairman, Hermansyah added dozens of students were given education on coral planting in the waters of the Seribu Islands National Park. The action of planting coral transplants was four rock life media (40 baby corals).

"They were allowed to conduct snorkeling activities in the underwater park area to make direct planting. Then, mangrove was planted using the spaced clump method and beach clean-up activities," he explained.

According to him, the coral reef conservation program was an effort to protect the ecosystem and marine biodiversity.

"Good coral reefs can increase fisheries productivity, thereby providing sustainable economic income to the community and giving solutions to overcome the global climate crisis problem," he explained.

One of the college students of UI, Adelia (22) admitted that she was happy to be involved in these activities.

"This is my first experience in transplanting coral reefs and planting mangroves. This is enjoyable, as I can participate in preserving our environment," he concluded.
