Pax Et Lumen Student to Attend UNESCO Conference Hosted by Japan in November
The Japanese National Commission and the Philippine National Commission for UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) have awarded a participant slot to James Matthew David, a Grade 9 student of Pax Et Lumen, in the World Conference on Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) to be held in Nagoya, Japan in November 2014. During the conference, four student participants from the Philippines will prepare and deliver a presentation on sustainable development, human security, cultural diversity, or any of the special topics under ESD. The inclusion of a Pax student in the Philippine national delegation of four students is in recognition of Pax’s efforts to integrate the teaching of science, mathematics, and technology in addressing current ecological and social global challenges.
