Congratulations to Kirsten Ashley L. Mayuga (DLSZ 2017) for winning three major awards – First Place in Project Proposal Presentation, Second Place – Project Branding and Communications Development, and Second Place in Over-All Best Project Proposal in the concluded UX : IDEAS YOUTH CAMP for UNESCO last July 1-4, 2016 held in Legazpi City, Albay.
Her project proposal, “Creation of Office of Student Activities in the Public and Private High Schools”, aims to ensure holistic formation of the students and focuses on some programs, which would respond in alleviating poverty and hunger, received positive reactions on the screening committee. She is the lone high school representative in the UNESCO camp attended by mostly college students.
With the theme, “Advancing Agenda 2030 for Education through Grassroots Action”, the camp pre-selected the lucky delegates based on the project proposals they had submitted. Only twenty participants were chosen out of the submitted projects from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
The camp aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and to promote life-long opportunities for all. This is a collaborative project among NAUCP, Bicol University, and the Philippine National Commission for UNESCO.
Ms. Emelita C. Baylon, Education Technology Coordinator, accompanied Kirsten in the four-day event.
Congratulations Kirsten! DLSZ is proud of you! Animo La Salle!
