Wildlife Conservation Education Camp 2026

BSBCC successfully organised our first Wildlife Conservation Education Camp in collaboration with Sandakan Vocational College 2 (KVS2). A total of 27 Diploma in Tourism students and 7 lecturers, including Mdm. Christine Stanislaus Kinsik, Director of KVS2, participated in this meaningful learning experience.

Throughout the programme, participants gained valuable exposure to the work of governmental and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in protecting wildlife species and their rainforest habitats. The programme also introduced students to eco-tourism activities in the Sepilok area, highlighting how sustainable tourism plays a vital role in supporting conservation initiatives.

Special thanks to the Australian High Commissioner Malaysia for generously sponsoring this programme. We also extend our heartfelt appreciation to our conservation partners—Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, Orangutan Appeal UK, Rainforest Discovery Centre, and Sandakan Borneo Bird Club—for their support and collaboration in making this programme a success.
