The annual beach cleaning initiative organized by the IMBA program has significantly contributed to both environmental conservation and community building. This event involved a diverse group of over 20 international students, including both incoming and second-year cohorts, who actively participated in cleaning the local beach.

The environmental impact of this initiative goes beyond simple waste collection. It fosters a deeper understanding among students about sustainable living and the role that future business leaders can play in promoting environmental stewardship. The students’ participation in the event not only helps preserve the local environment but also cultivates a commitment to ongoing environmental responsibility.

From a social perspective, the event enhanced the interaction between international students and the local community. This not only enriched the students' understanding of local cultures and environmental issues but also strengthened community ties.

Overall, the beach cleaning event by the IMBA not only made a tangible impact on the environment but also significantly contributed to the social fabric of the community, demonstrating the powerful role of academic programs in shaping responsible and engaged global citizens.
