PT PLN (Persero) UIP3B SUMATRA UPT Pekanbaru, through the Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) program officially launched the PLN Peduli Mangrove Ecosystem Restoration Program in Berakit Village, Teluk Sebong District, Bintan Regency. The program, which is run in collaboration with the Riau Islands Ecology Foundation (YEKR), targets the planting of 15,000 Rhizophora stylosa mangrove trees in stages, with direct involvement of local community groups as the main actors.

In March 2025, YEKR had the opportunity to attend and participate in the 1st International Symposium on Biodiversity, Conservation, and Ecotourism (BCE Symposium) held in Yogyakarta. This symposium is a forum or meeting initiated to discuss issues related to biodiversity, including research and utilization.

On April 16-17, 2025, Ecology Foundation (YEKR) had the opportunity to accompany the Sekolah Alam Indonesi in the Young Explorer 2025 activity with the theme "Exploring Wonderful Culture & Nature of Riau Island". The activity, which was attended by 44 students and 5 teachers from South Jakarta, was designed to invite the younger generation to get to know the natural and cultural potential of the Riau Islands while fostering awareness of the importance of protecting the environment
