Model UN Program 2007 |

Inspiring
San Diego Students to Explore Their World… |
The 2007 District 5340 Model United
Nations program was held on March 24-25, 2007 at the
Braille Institute. This year we had 22 teams
participating from 13 clubs from all over the
district, with steady growth over our three years in
existence. In Model UN, high school students step
into the shoes of international diplomats for the
weekend. Each team represents a different country.
They will debate 3 resolutions, adapted from
real-time resolutions at the U.N.: on Iran, Somalia,
and AIDS in Africa. Our lunchtime speaker will be
Marieta Siquiera, Ambassadorial Scholar from Brazil.
There will also be a special evening program, but we
cannot unveil it just yet! More... |
