Exploring the Stories That Shape the Philippines as a Maritime Nation
The sea has always been at the heart of the Philippine story. As an archipelagic nation, our history, identity, and progress have been shaped by centuries of maritime exchange, navigation, trade, and cultural encounters. Today, these stories continue to inspire new ways of understanding our past and envisioning the future of maritime heritage.
In line with its commitment to advancing maritime scholarship and public engagement, AIMS Museo Maritimo is pleased to announce the online release of Aguhon: A Philippine Maritime History and Heritage Journal, Volume IV, Issue No. 1.
This latest issue is now available through the museum website and invites readers to explore innovative perspectives on maritime history, heritage, and museum education.
What's Inside This Volume
The fourth volume of Aguhon examines the Philippines' enduring maritime identity by connecting its rich historical heritage with its vital role in today's global shipping, port, and supply chain industries.
A central theme of this issue is the evolving role of museums as dynamic learning spaces. The featured articles explore how museums can transform visitor experiences through:
Visitor-centered storytelling
Gamification in heritage education
Participatory learning approaches
Immersive and experiential educational experiences
By placing visitors at the center of interpretation, this volume demonstrates how maritime history can become more engaging, accessible, and meaningful for learners of all ages.
