Jubilee Memorial College observed World Heritage Day on 18 April 2026 with a programme organised by the Department of History. The event was held under the theme, “Between Faith and Ancestry: Negotiating Indigenous Identity in Christian Naga Society.”
This marked the fifth consecutive year that the department has organised the observance, reflecting its continued commitment to promoting awareness and discussion on heritage-related issues.
As part of the programme, an essay competition was conducted with the participation of 20 students. The competition encouraged students to critically engage with the theme and present their perspectives on the relationship between faith and indigenous identity.
Certificates were awarded to all participants, while cash prizes were presented to the winners in recognition of their achievements. The first and second prize winners were also invited to deliver short talks based on their essays.
Their presentations reflected diverse viewpoints and helped deepen the audience’s understanding of the subject. The programme highlighted the importance of engaging young minds in discussions on heritage, identity, and cultural continuity.
