By Zoila Palma: The National Institute of Culture and History (NICH) participated in the 2nd National EdTech Summit, highlighting the importance of preserving Belize’s culture and identity as technology continues to transform education.

NICH said its participation reflected the guiding principle of Minister of Education, Culture, Science and Technology, Hon.
