Our students and directors participate in the United Nations First Committee meetings and events!

October 26, 2018

Over the last couple of weeks,

our students and directors have attended meetings and events of the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly, whose work focuses on disarmament and international security. The events have been a fascinating learning experience for all of us. We are eager to continue our collaboration with the UN Office of Disarmament to increase education efforts and engagement of youth in these topics.

The First Committee deals with disarmament, global challenges and threats to peace that affect the international community, and seeks solutions to the challenges in the current international security regime.
