On Saturday, October 4th, 2014, Sathya Sai Educators conducted a one day Education in Human Values (EHV) introductory course to 8 school principals and 27 teachers of elementary schools in Tacloban, Philippines. The lectures were conducted at the office of the Vice Mayor of Tacloban. The program began with a guided light meditation session. The course included an overview of the EHV program, the activities of Sathya Sai International Organisation (SSIO), Phillipines and the Sathya Sai School in Manila. The other topics covered during the sessions were the five human values as projected by all religions, an overview of the implementation strategies for incorporating the EHV program in public schools, expected outcomes, a demonstration of the teaching techniques and concluded with a Qestion and Answer session. The program was very well received and a proposal is being considered to conduct a similar three day EHV course in December 2014.
