Project Purpose & Description

The two-part webinar, entitled "Southeast Asian-Latin American Connection," is part of the series of online activities under the Philippine International Quincentennial Conference (PIQC), which will run from 20 October until 17 December 2021. The PIQC is a collaborative project of the National Quincentennial Committee (NQC) and 15 other agencies, universities, and professional national historical societies, including the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA).

The webinar, which will be Session 7 of the PIQC, is a collaboration between the DFA and the Philippine Academic Consortium for Latin American Studies (PACLAS).
