A Filipina — Elizabeth Cordova — will receive this year's Hans Manneby Memorial Fund Museum Development Award for her work in museum development in Negros Occidental.
According to a report of the Visayan Daily Star, Cordova, director of the "Museo sang Bata sa Negros" in Sagay City, will receive the award in Stockholm, Sweden, on November 10.
The Hans Manneby Memorial Fund Museum Development Award is given to a person who has worked in the spirit of Hans Manneby (1946-2008), an author and chairperson of Swedish ICOM, the International Council of Museums.
Cordova told the Visayan Daily Star that she will try her best "to live and work in his (Manneby's) legacy. I am very thankful to the Lord for this prize."
The report said Cordova was cited for her work at the Museo sang Bata sa Negros, a children’s "hands-on" museum that aims to stimulate their creative and intellectual potentials.
Cordova was nominated by another museum director from Africa.
Cordova shared that she will have an audience with the Queen of Sweden and other royalty who are very interested in projects for children. - VVP, GMA News
