About the Museo PambataSpeakers and Moderators
Our partners and sponsors:
Museo Pambata is primarily a children’s interactive museum established to enhance the lives of Filipino children. It has eight theme rooms where children, families and school groups can explore new and exciting learning opportunities by reliving our rich cultural heritage, assuming a
pro-active role in caring for the environment, understanding how the human body works, discovering science through play, imagining what they could become someday, and understanding human rights in a global perspective. Educational programs for children and adults enhance Museo Pambata’s interactive exhibits.
Founded in 1993, the Museo Pambata Foundation Inc. was granted by the City of Manila the use of the historical Elks Club building to house an interactive children's museum, the first of its kind in the country. Since then, the Museo Pambata has created eight interactive theme rooms, traveled four major exhibits and welcomed almost three million visitors.

Every country has its own internal conflicts. Conflicts can exist in the family, community or nation. Children's museums can be bridges in understanding these conflicts. We start with the young to help build peaceful adults.
True to its commitment to uphold the welfare of children through alternative education, the Museo Pambata, through a grant from the Japan Foundation, is holding the 1st Asian Children's Museum Conference with the theme: Children's Museum as Bridges of Peace. The four-day conference, which will be held on February 23-26, 2008 at the Manila Hotel, Manila, Philippines, will bring together museum workers, educators, peace builders, parents and students from Asia. Forums, plenary sessions, workshops will be held to discuss how children's museums can build peace in their respective countries.
