THE Association for Philippines-China Understanding (APCU) and the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Philippines have jointly announced the call for nominations for the Awards for Promoting Philippines-China Understanding (APPCU) 2024.
APCU is the pioneer and the leading nongovernment organization (NGO) in the Philippines in promoting people-to-people diplomacy, bilateral understanding, and friendship between the Philippines and China.
According to APCU Chairman Raul Lambino, APPCU 2024 is given to "Filipino citizens with praiseworthy work in fostering amity, friendship and mutual understanding between the Philippines and China."
The APPCU recognizes individuals whose works have significantly contributed to the cross-cultural dialogue and collaborative ventures and strengthened friendships between the two nations.
Nominees should be distinguished by their achievements in enhancing bilateral relations, mutual understanding, and friendship between the Philippines and China through cultural, educational, economic or other collaborative initiatives.
Nominations may come from all sectors — academia, business, arts, media, government and beyond.
The selection criteria will focus on the nominee's work's impact on bridging the people-to-people, cultural, and understanding gap between the Filipino and Chinese communities.
APCU will be accepting nominations until April 15, 2024. Current officials of APCU and incumbent public officials are disqualified.
