Malala Yousafzai, 2014 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, UN Messenger of Peace and co-founder of the Malala Fund, attends "Spotlight session 5: Advancing gender equality and girls’ and women’s empowerment in and through education” held on the third day of the Transforming Education Summit 2022.

The Transforming Education Summit was being convened in response to a global crisis in education – one of equity and inclusion, quality and relevance. Often slow and unseen, this crisis is having a devastating impact on the futures of children and youth worldwide. The Summit provides a unique opportunity to elevate education to the top of the global political agenda and to mobilize action, ambition, solidarity and solutions to recover pandemic-related learning losses and sow the seeds to transform education in a rapidly changing world.

These projects focus on the areas of education, sanitation, health, community development, and the empowerment of women. They include a clinic, a women’s’ centre and several schools.

Headline Telecommunications Training Institute in the Philippines

Caption Description Due to the fact that the Republic of the Philippines occupies an archipelago consisting of some 7,000 islands, the country is particularly in need of an efficient telecommunications system. The Department of Public Works and Communications at present operates radio stations, telegraph offices and telegraph-telephone offices in more than 1,000 communities. Many of the remaining communities have no telecommunications facilities at all, while the existing stations are greatly understaffed. On the average the number of technical personnel of all categories is only about two-thirds of the number required, and the standard of knowledge and skills of the existing staff is inadequate. The Government, with the assistance of the UN Development Programme (UNDP) and with International Telecommunications Union (ITU) as Executing Agency, set up the Telecommunications Training Institute at Valenzuela, Bulacan to implement the training of sufficient numbers of engineers and technicians to serve the system. By the end of 1968, the Institute graduated more than 2,000 engineers and technicians in wire telegraphy and telephony, transmission and carrier system and telecommunication research.
Trainees adjust telephone relay systems during the class at the Telecommunications Training and Research Institute in Valenzuela, Bulacan. [No exact date]
