ZAMBOANGA CITY -- The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Sec. Fortunato Dela Peña will keynote the 2017 National Science and Technology Week (NSTW) regional celebration in this city.

The NSTW regional celebration will be held back-to-back with the Regional Invention Contest and Exhibits (RICE) from November 22 to 24. 

DOST OIC-Regional Director Martin Wee on Monday said the twin events is also targeted at bridging the gap between the world of scientists and research buffs to reach every "Juan" across the country while promoting DOST’s programs and services.

Among the activities lined-up for the NSTW and RICE events include technology bazaars and exhibit, Science and Technology (S&T) Film Festival, technology fora and technical sessions on Intellectual Property Rights Protection, Science Journalism, Food Packaging and Labelling, Green Engineering and Health and Wellness.

Inventions and research projects of the qualified RICE entries will also be showcased.

Wee said this year’s S&T Week regional celebration, which is anchored on the theme “Science for the People,” will feature the department-developed technologies and inventions in line with its goal of bridging the world of the sciences to the Filipino communities.

Wee said that also to be featured are the DOST assisted food and non-food products as well as the different programs and services and interactive exhibits.

Other top DOST officials, including former DOST regional director and now Undersecretary for Regional Operations Brenda, are expected to join Dela Peña in gracing the event.

Wee said the event is open to all interested individuals such as S&T enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, students, researchers, inventors, innovators, professionals and the general public. (PNA) NOVEMBER 2017
