For the 44th Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) and 2022 Regional Scientific Meetings (RSM), the National Academy of Science and Technology Philippines (NAST PHL) adopted the theme: PAGTANAW 2050: Agham Tungo sa Mabuting Kinabukasan (FORESIGHT 2050: Science for a Sustainable Future). Science, technology, and innovation (STI) are recognized as crucial but insufficient elements in addressing societal challenges. DOST Secretary Fortunato T. de la Pe\u00f1a entrusted NAST PHL with developing a 30-year STI Foresight, known as PAGTANAW 2050, the first Philippine-focused plan anticipating factors influencing the country’s development. Aligned with the vision of a “Prosperous, Archipelagic, Maritime Nation,” PAGTANAW 2050 advocates for a globally competitive, knowledge-based, inclusive, and sustainable Philippine blue and circular economy. Drawing from constitutional aspirations, national plans, and global goals, the initiative aims to cultivate an educated, healthy, and productive citizenry. NAST PHL chose PAGTANAW 2050 as the central theme for its scientific meetings to raise awareness in the STI community and present recommendations for its implementation to relevant government agencies during the 44th ASM.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
