Filipino artist designer Leeroy

Celebrate Earth Day 2022 by viewing the work of Filipino contemporary artist-designer Leeroy New, who will debut his first large-scale installation in the UK this April at the courtyard of Somerset House.

“The Arks of Gimokudan” will be made up of recycled materials and plastic waste to form a fleet of ships floating on the courtyard, inviting visitors to take a closer look. The installation aims to address the often problematic life cycle of everyday objects and to confront audiences with the scale of single use plastic waste impacting the UK and the globe on a daily basis.

The installation will be free to view from 5 to 26 April 2022.

 

consular dialogue 2022 01

The Philippine Embassy in London actively participated in the inaugural Philippines-United Kingdom Consular Dialogue successfully held today, 16 February 2022. The Consular Dialogue was led by Foreign Affairs Assistant Secretary for European Affairs Jaime Victor Ledda, and the United Kingdom (UK) led by Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) Director for Consular Affairs, Jennifer Anderson.

The meeting welcomed initial exchanges between both sides on the proposed Philippines-UK Transfer of Sentenced Persons Agreement.

Both countries discussed views and perspectives on consular concerns that affect their respective citizens, particularly those relating to passports, civil registry and assistance to nationals.

The Philippines and the UK committed to sustain this new mechanism for dialogue as a venue for exchanging views, and crucially, its role in expanding the scope of consular cooperation and further strengthening bilateral relations.

The consular dialogue is one of the five pillars of the “Enhanced Partnership” between the Philippines and UK, which aside from consular, include political, economic, climate, and defense matters.  Under this enhanced partnership, both countries aim to drive forward joint activities in pursuit of shared priorities leading towards prosperity, security and people-to-people exchanges in the future. 

The Enhanced Partnership was officially launched in London last November by Secretary Teodoro L. Locsin and UK Foreign Secretary Elizabeth Truss in celebration of the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The PH-UK Joint Statement on the Consular Dialogue was issued at the close of the meeting.
