If you haven't heard of Dr Joseph Palacio, he was the first ever Belizean Garifuna to obtain a doctorate degree in anthropology, and he's been a champion for Garifuna culture, language and history.

And now, you can read about his life's work in a three volume series. As a pioneer anthropologist, this series contains priceless nuggets of wisdom for young students, and as a pre-eminent Garifuna scholar, it also serves to keep the culture alive.

Today, copies of his three books were presented to both the Ministry of Education and NICH during a ceremony. The Minister of Education explained what can be found in each volume, and Dr Palacio's son, Dr Vincent Palacio, spoke about this exciting new venture for education and culture.
