Model United Nations Conference

A team of 12 Paulines attended the conference at London Oratory School on Saturday, representing the Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia and Israel.

Rory Todd (Lower Eighth) won the prize for Best Delegate on the Social, Cultural and Humanitarian Committee, Dermot Christmas (Lower Eighth) was selected as most Highly Commended Delegate on the UN Office on Drugs and Crime committee, and Henrik Helsen (Lower Eighth) won Best Delegate for his work on the Special Political and Decolonization Committee. Dermot and Henrik, along with fellow delegate Charles Beaufour (Lower Eighth), also won the prize for Best Delegation at the General Assembly, where their resolution in response to the ‘crisis’ topic (the discovery of oil on the Falkland Islands) was debated and passed with a solid majority.
