observed by Rotary Merimbula Youth Director, William De Jong
The national Model United Nations Assembly (MUNA) was held 11 to 13 August in the Senate Chamber of Old Parliament House - now the Museum of Australian Democracy. This annual event is facilitated by the Rotary Club of Canberra Sunrise and our Club sponsored two students from Eden Marine High School. There were 47 students from across Australia representing 17 nations. The Eden Marine team represented Israel.
Students debated 6 resolutions which included the situation in the South China Sea, the state of global food security and a call for concrete action to eliminate racism and related intolerance. Phoebe and Euan acquitted themselves well despite limited preparation time.
Phoebe, Euan and Eden Marine High School teachers have been invited to speak at a Rotary club meeting to share their experiences, early November 2023.
