The group comprised of selected high school principals and heads of educational institutions from across India. Arjun Chowdhary, Director of KC Public School, was a member of this delegation. The event was fully supported and facilitated by the High Commission of Malta in India.
The delegates spent time in Malta, interacted with students, faculty and senior officials of the University and participated in an academic programme termed "Creativity, Perception and Idea Generation" exclusively designed for them by the University of Malta. During the visit lasting 8 days, the members of the delegation had a first-hand experience of the educational, cultural and social settings of Malta. Provisions were also made for their sightseeing and leisure activities with the assistance of the Malta Tourism Authority.
The University of Malta has been placing special emphasis on developing collaborative exchanges with Indian educational experts, academics and institutions of learning. Organizing this delegation was the reiteration of this objective.
In the last four years, the University of Malta has been actively promoting itself in India with extensive support from the High Commission of Malta in New Delhi. Through this concerted effort, interest in collaboration between Malta and India has increased at various levels. Promoting mutual academic exchanges, organizing seminars and sharing knowledge and expertise with Indian educational institutions has become a prominent item on the internationalization agenda of the University. |
