On the 28th of February – 1st March, Gordon’s School is hosting its annual Model United Nations conference. This event will be attended by around 150 delegates from schools such as Reading Blue Coat, Blenheim, Beaconsfield, Ibstock, Priors Field, and Gordon’s itself.
The two day long conference will see students debate heavy-hitting relevant topics such as the American intervention in Venezuela, refugee protection in foreign nations, and the energy requirements of artificial intelligence.
Beth Bailey, our Secretary General, will be overlooking the event and will be aided by our two Presidents of the General Assembly, James Taplin and Grace Gerrish. The debates will also be managed by the chairs of each committee which comprises of Gordon’s students and external experienced MUN debaters.
The conference is the highlight of the Gordon’s MUN team’s year and is something that we have been planning for a very long time – excitement is high for the big event!
