Following Prof. Carmel Borg's keynote speech at an international Lithuanian conference organised by Vilnius University of Applied Sciences, he was awarded a medal in recognition of his contribution to Lithuanian education.
A sold-out book, several keynote speeches, initial teacher education, and faculty seminars are some of Prof. Borg's contributions mentioned in the short speech following the announcement.
This year, there were twenty nominees for the award. Only six of the twenty nominations were accepted.
