Congratulations to Bill Yotive for receiving the 2024 Distinguished Service Award from ISA!
We are thrilled to celebrate William Yotive’s remarkable achievement in being honored with the 2024 Distinguished Service Award from the International Schools Association (ISA). This prestigious award recognizes his tireless commitment to leading and supporting the development of international education.
William’s dedication and passion have made a profound impact on the global education community. His unwavering efforts have inspired countless educators and students, fostering a spirit of innovation and collaboration that transcends borders.
We also congratulate Conrad Hughes for receiving the International Humanism Award 2024.
The International Humanism Award is granted to persons and organizations who believe that International Humanism is a philosophy, a state of being and a way of living which consists in a set of universal human values that only active dialogue and shared experience can uncover. Past recipients include the Human Rights activists Álvaro Gil-Robles and Malala Yousafzai and the educators Dorothy Goodman (founder and past Director of Washington International School) and Gerard Renaud (former International Baccalaureate DG).
ISA Chairwoman Narin Stassis said “the Board of ISA congratulates Dr Hughes. This award recognises the tremendous contributions he has made to international education in his scholarship, publications and curriculum initiatives over several years”.
The ISA Board of directors have expressed that Conrad’s “leadership, impact on international education and tireless promotion of universal human values do not go unnoticed.”
Conrad Hughes, who was awarded the prize on the 7th of May commented: “I am honoured to receive this award and thank ISA for the important work they have done to build the construct of international education over more than 70 years. Ecolint, Yokohama International School and the United Nations International School in New York are all bound by long-lasting affiliations with ISA. I look forward to a new era of partnership for international mindedness as the world moves towards a celebration of 100 years of international education”.
