THE 4TH DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL RESEARCH CONGRESS
The DLSU SHS Research Congress is arguably the country’s largest annual gathering of senior high school research mentors and students as they bring with them research-based ideas, concepts, products, and art performances and exhibitions from their own capstone projects. It is a vision conceived by DLSU SHS’ commitment to making a dent in society by future-proofing the youth in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world through knowledge creation. In line with the University’s vision-mission of bridging faith and scholarship and amidst disruptive situations, the Congress highlights the essential role of nurturing a culture of research through the production and dissemination of innovative knowledge for continuous human development and social transformation.
From 78 featured presentations with 2,000 participants in its first edition, the DLSU SHS Research Congress has grown exponentially to featuring more than 200 paper and poster presentations, performances, and exhibitions from across 20 research themes from the Social Sciences, Humanities, Life and Natural Sciences, and Business. Its expansion saw the first ever virtual hosting of more than 2,500 participants across 50 schools in and outside the Philippines during last year’s edition.
More than a year into the pandemic, it is crucial to transition from seeing COVID-19 as a detrimental itch to a discomfort that brings about transformation. It is through the disruptions caused by COVID-19 that a new breed of researchers and research approaches prosper. In fact, the 3rd DLSU SHS Research Congress serves as a testament to what our young researchers could do despite the present limitations. Embracing the theme, Beyond the New Normal: Realizing Innovations for a Sustainable and Crisis Proactive Society, the 4th DLSU SHS Research Congress believes in harnessing a forward-looking gaze – a perspective that pierces through the direction of the winds of change in an indefinite turbulence. It seeks to surface the need to build a more proactive society that is resilient to both man-made and natural crises. This year’s Congress envisions to feature scientific and artistic research projects that marry innovation with sustainability. It dares its participants to look beyond the new normal. It aims to discover solutions today to the problems of tomorrow.
