Dear friends from the media,
Greetings from the Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA)!
PhilSA is set to recognize outstanding high school students doing space research through the PhilSA High School Research and Innovation Award to Yield Advancement in Space Science and Technology, or PhilSA HiRAYA.
The award will be conferred on student researchers participating in the Department of Education (DepEd)’s Regional Science and Technology Fair (RSTF) and National Science and Technology Fair (NSTF), whose research aligns with PhilSA’s Key Development Areas. These include national security and development, hazard management and climate studies, space research and development, space industry and capacity building, space education and awareness, and international cooperation.
Through HiRAYA, PhilSA aims to encourage greater interest in space research among high school students while fostering future collaboration between young researchers and the Philippine space sector.
