The Gilutongan Marine Sanctuary was the site for my dissertation research in 2001. Since that time the sanctuary has enjoy great success in stewardship of the local coastal environment. In 2006 the sanctuary's income from visitors was over 3 .2 million pesos (US$60,000 plus). However, most of the funds go to the municipality in Cordova, not to the island fisherfolk who need them for health and education. The sanctuary is becoming one of the many promising examples of Coastal Resource Management and Stewardship of the Environment!
