The winners of the World Refugee Day 2022 Migrant Essay Competition received their prizes from the Ministry of Education and the Pan-American Development Foundation (PADF) during a ceremony yesterday at the Ministry’s 26 Brickdam office.
The Coordinator of the Ministry of Education’s Disaster Risk Prevention and Migrant Support Unit, Rampattie Prashad-Bisnauth said that the idea for the competition came about after interacting with Emily Vaamonde-Beria, a migrant student who topped the Crane Primary School last year at the National Grade Six Assessment.
