Don Eliseo Lucero-Prisno III

  • 1st Filipino to receive the SHINE International Student Award of the United Kingdom (2008)


QUOTE
"awards for me are instruments to highlight works of individuals since they are the advocates and emissaries of this marginalized people. An award should not be self-serving. It's not about the awardee, it's about the people s/he works for. And I will continue working for them because I know how it feels having been one of them"

BIRTHPLACE
