Tredici nostri studenti si sono cimentati per tre giorni nei comitati ECOSOC (economico-sociale), WHO (Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità), FAO (organizzazione per l’alimentazione e l’agricoltura) e Special Political per discutere e trovare soluzioni a problemi quanto mai attuali:

ECOSOC
Implementing strengthened coordination of emergency humanitarian assistance. Fostering the responsible use of digital technologies to enhance their influence on social development and the well-being of all.

WHO
Tackling reasons for child malnutrition both undernourishment and obesity. Responsibly preventing and managing the spread of Monkeypox, in preparation for a possible pandemic outburst.

FAO
Promoting effective responses to climate shocks with a specific focus on agricultural production. Ensuring the accessibility of adequate supplies of food for civilian populations in conflict zones.

SPEC POL
Implementing measures to promote Denuclearisation and De-escalation in the Iran-Israel Conflict. Improving study and training facilities for inhabitants of Non-Self-Governing Territories

Ci congratuliamo con tutti gli studenti che hanno seguito il corso di preparazione con grande serietà e hanno partecipato in modo attivo e costruttivo per trovare soluzioni ai problemi proposti.

In particolare, ci complimentiamo con Beatrice Battaglino, Letizia Ricci (WHO) e Federica Lupo per la menzione d’onore; Anna Bozzi (WHO) per il premio come Best Delegate e Irene Tardito (FAO) per il premio come Best first-time Delegate.
Come sempre ringraziamo la IST, in particolare Elaine Walker, Clara Siviero e Marita Bellone per l’efficienza organizzativa e la disponibilità dimostrata.

Infine, alcuni commenti a caldo da parte dei protagonisti:

“When I arrived on the first day I was a bit scared: it was my first time at TOMUN and I didn’t want to make any mistakes. However, when we started debating I became more confident and I really enjoyed the experience. I understood that in the end the most important thing is to proudly represent your country, to let yourself go and, most of all, to have fun.
I made new friends and learnt new things. I’m very happy and I want to thank my teachers for allowing me to do this experience.  I wish I could do it again!”
(E. Petruzzi)

“My Tomun experience was extraordinary. I was really passionate about the topics discussed in my committee; I’ve also received an honourable mention, I am so happy about it! Finally, I loved it because it made me understand that I would like to study International Relations at university.”
(F. Lupo)

“My experience with Tomun has been honestly surprisingly amusing.  During the lessons and while doing my homework I was feeling a little anxious about my abilities and I was starting to feel a little bit unsure about my English but than, at the conference, I got to know some really nice people and I ended up feeling more confident speaking in public than I ever thought I would be, even though I recognise I still need to work on it.  Anyway, it was a really nice experience and I’m glad I stepped out of my comfort zone because I feel like it really made me grow as a person even and mostly for its ups and downs.”
