Summit for the Summit

For the inaugural Global Summit in July, Andrew Newman rode 100 miles to raise awareness on SDG 3 and funds to cover the costs of the event. Cody Eckert, MUN Impact’s Director of Global Operations, was inspired and decided to challenge himself by climbing the tallest mountain in his area, Mount Baldy.
Who will join the team?! Cody is challenging EVERYONE to go to the top of the tallest point near them…whether it’s a mountain, a hill, or even to the top of the tallest nearby building! Be sure to take photos and share them on social media with the hashtag #summit4thesummit and #munimpact.
The Global Summit 2.0 is available free to all students around the world; however, there are substantial costs related to its production. Please, if you value the work MUN Impact is doing and believe in its purpose, consider donating what you can so we can continue our mission.

Session 1
Learn how a lack of understanding, education and empathy are creating barriers to care and how student volunteers can and are making a difference. Operation Smile envisions a Learn how a lack of understanding, education and empathy are creating barriers to care and how student volunteers can and are making a difference. Operation Smile envisions a future where health and dignity are improved through safe surgery. We estimate there are millions of children unable to access the medical care they need in the 34 countries where we work. Because of this, being born with a cleft condition can be fatal. If a child survives, they may face bullying and social isolation. With 35 years of expertise, we continue to provide life-saving reconstructive cleft surgeries and increase our overall surgical safety, quality and capacity worldwide. Our compassionate volunteers give patients around the world a chance to live normal lives that are healthier and more fulfilling. We depend on young leaders to make this happen by building awareness, raising funds and educating their communities. _____________________ Kyla Cromey-Hawke Kyla, Student Programs Coordinator: Operation Smile, United Arab Emirates. My experiences during my first medical program with Operation Smile in 2010 as a newly graduated University student is what drives me in my role. It was there I learned ‘There is no ‘just’ – everyone is an essential part of the team whether you’re a student or a surgeon”. After watching local University students work alongside the medical team acting as translators and high school students’ touching interactions with the patients, teaching them basic health care topics, I saw for myself that students can and do make a difference. Lenora Dsouza Lenora Dsouza: Student Ambassador, Operation Smile, UAE. I am 17 years old and I go to the Cambridge High School, UAE. I first got involved with Operation Smile through my school being the first club in the UAE. Slowly throughout the years my experiences and reach grew through my involvement with the foundation, attending a medical mission, an international mission training and conference. Through Operation Smile, I understood how much a student can make an impact on someone’s life. Maryam Saleel Maryam Saleel, Student Volunteer: Operation Smile, United Arab Emirates. I started off my journey with Operation Smile three years ago. Since then, Operation Smile has played a huge role in my personal growth. From being part of an international conference to attending a medical mission, the experiences that were offered to me were priceless. It was and is incredibly humbling to see how much impact student volunteers can have on the lives and perspectives of our patients. Here’s my takeaway: never underestimate the power of the light you bring into this world.

With the growing long-overdue compassion occurring in our society today, there are numerous ideas being emplaced and action being taken. People worldwide are speaking out on issues that With the growing long-overdue compassion occurring in our society today, there are numerous ideas being emplaced and action being taken. People worldwide are speaking out on issues that have been suppressed for generations, unsaid, and even unknown. Whether it is the #BlackLivesMatter movement, the fight against police brutality, or notions about the general approach to providing better conditions for minorities and women – society is again seeing a battle for equality and justice. With this in mind, our workshop aims to help the international community recognize the power that youth hold for change in our rapidly moving world. We want participants to be aware of youth’s antipathy and the lack of inspiration and growth due to our utilitarianism and neglective educative systems (especially traditional Asian curriculums), and methods to approach the situation. Through this workshop, participants will develop communication skills and solution/analytical based thinking; in creating solutions to address these issues. Easily linked to our organization (Global Youth), our initiative could be replicated across the globe as our organization focuses on developing subordinate initiatives that dictate to the same purpose but nurture specific generations to help specific countries/areas (Generation Z; ex. “Manila Z” or “Busan Z“). _____________________________ Hello!

Gen-Z lives and breathes sustainability. That’s why we, at Voiz Reviews, believe our generation can be the driving force behind creating a world with more sustainable and responsible Gen-Z lives and breathes sustainability. That’s why we, at Voiz Reviews, believe our generation can be the driving force behind creating a world with more sustainable and responsible consumption – what you may also know as SDG 12. Our global team of college-aged students rate and review products (think chocolate, sunscreen, even the iPhone 11) based on their sustainability on the most basic level. The main questions we ask ourselves are “What is it made of?“, “How is it made?” and “Who makes it”?“. What we are doing goes way beyond that. We’re also calling out green-washing, evaluating company labor practices, and pointing consumers to the companies who are doing things right, or at least trying to. This workshop will take you through our process and discuss how we see Gen-Z impacting the world through the lens of SDG 12. _______________________ Aalekhya Vasantavada, Elisa Zhang, Sanskriti Tandon I believe sustainability is the need of the hour. I have a keen interest in clean energy and water treatment technologies. Through my involvement with non-profit organizations, including Bhumi and Net Impact Montreal, I have seen the effects of resource scarcity firsthand, propelling me toward seeking a career in sustainability. I am pursuing a Masters in Applied Environmental Engineering at McGill University after earning a bachelor’s in chemical engineering in India. My academic career has included research in electro fermentation of waste to produce hydrogen (green fuel), soil rehabilitation, wastewater treatment, and development of portable chemical sensors to detect contaminants in water. I am also a passionate writer who produces technical content/articles for sustainability startups like Voiz and Circle.Hi! Elisa Zhang (aka “Elsa” to friends), born and raised in NYC, and I’m currently finishing my last semester of undergraduate studies at Cornell University. My sustainability journey started when I first went vegan three years ago, and it completely changed the trajectory of my life and career. I started developing a whole world view – one in which we, as humans, must do our part in protecting it. One internship at an urban rooftop farming startup in Hong Kong later, I went from studying to be a surgeon to pursue sustainability full time. Sanskriti Tandon is a junior at Georgetown University in Qatar, studying International Economics and Governments. She has been actively advocating for the SDGs through her educational work with students worldwide, which led her to present on the TQ-Afghanistan Initiative at the UN in 2019. Sanskriti interned for the Ambassador of Panama in Qatar to further explore the convergence of bureaucratic management and social affairs. She is currently working on exploring the importance of social entrepreneurship and developing a systematic learning approach alongside hosting an SDG Post-COVID Design platform with partners across the region.

What is Human Trafficking and what are some of its impacts on society? We look at some efforts that have been put forth in combating this issue and What is Human Trafficking and what are some of its impacts on society? We look at some efforts that have been put forth in combating this issue and which SDGs in particular work towards addressing this issue. We look more deeply into one particular effort or campaign launched to address this issue: The Blue Heart Initiative. We will see how Lebawi Academy MUN (LIAMUN) has worked to support the cause of this initiative: the goals we hoped to meet by taking on this project and the actions we took to accomplish these goals. We look at the importance of partaking in projects that aim to combat such issues. We will share and investigate the process of achieving collaborations with such initiatives from the beginning. We will analyze how effective we were as a team in accomplishing the projects, the improvements that could be made on how we undertook the project, and steps you could take to participate in such activities. _____________________________________ My name is Sophia Jemal.

This introduces SDG 4 and its solutions to the global community. My workshop covers how I started this education mini-revolution and how I plan to continue to build upon it, including plans of action for individuals who may want to contribute to this or start their own mini-revolution! ____________________________ I’m a 13-year-old student studying in Pune, India.

Lima do Nascimento joined his first MUN Conference. He had one objective in mind: To learn who refugees were and what the international community could do to help them. With no idea where to start, he grabbed a pen and a piece of paper, googled “Refugees” and started his journey. Eleven years later, he found himself at the Brazilian-Venezuelan border, giving lectures for 500+ persons each day, explaining what were their rights as refugees and asylum-seekers as they entered a new country to call home. For the past year and a half, he has met with refugees and migrants fleeing scarcity of food and clean water, lack of education, corruption, and political persecution. As of right now, he works with documentation and resettlement of Venezuelan refugees to elsewhere in Brazil. Feel free to ask him about his professional and MUN-related experiences! ____________________ My name is Pedro Henrique Lima do Nascimento. I was born in Brasília, Brazil, where I also went to school and completed my BA in International Relations at the University of Brasília. After obsessing over MUN through Secondary and Tertiary education, I went to Costa Rica to complete an MA in International Peace Studies. After that, I went to work with IOM, UNODC, and now UNHCR. Currently, I live in Boa Vista, Brazil, close to the border with Venezuela. Though I have now moved to a professional part of my life, I like to stay connected with Academia and students. MUNs are an important vehicle to that objective.

Today, as the global climate changes, the Arctic is one of the most important regions on the planet. Polar Aspect Associates Joshua Gray, Olivia Silk and Rosemary Tregenza Today, as the global climate changes, the Arctic is one of the most important regions on the planet. Polar Aspect Associates Joshua Gray, Olivia Silk and Rosemary Tregenza will introduce you to this fascinating and fast-changing place, and invite you to explore it through our new and exciting Online Model Arctic Council (OMAC) programme. Unique amongst international organisations, the Arctic Council’s table includes not only Arctic states, but the indigenous peoples who call the Arctic home, and it takes all of its decisions by unanimous consensus. OMAC delegates must rise to the challenge of finding the solutions that bring these states and peoples together on some of the most challenging social, environmental and economic issues facing the Arctic, and by extension the world. Join us to learn how to become an OMAC delegate, and for a taste of our free OMAC delegate training programme, coming to you this November! __________________________ Joshua Gray, Olivia Silk, Rosemary Tregenza Joshua Gray – Since 2018, Josh has taken part in a wide range of diplomatic simulations, including Model Arctic Council, Model United Nations and Model US Senate. In 2020, he served as Secretary of the Norwich Model Arctic Council, one of Polar Aspect’s in-person MACs. He has a passionate interest in the Arctic and Arctic issues, especially issues facing Arctic indigenous peoples, and he is keen to share this interest with other students and pupils. Josh is currently reading Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford in the UK. Olivia Silk – With family background in Yukon Territory, Olivia’s research interests include the Canadian North and how international governance mechanisms such as the Arctic Council affect indigenous communities. She has participated in two Model Arctic Council conferences at university level, including Polar Aspect’s NORMAC for University, and she is keen to make this type of simulation accessible to a wider audience. Olivia is currently reading for a Masters in Canadian and Indigenous Studies at Trent University in Canada. Rosemary Tregenza – Since 2017, Rosemary has participated in various model-diplomacy conferences, including Model Arctic Council and Model United Nations, both as a delegate and a member of the Secretariat. Her focus and interest now is on the art of ‘behind-the-scenes’ management of model-diplomacy conferences, so that other students and pupils can enjoy them as much as she does. Rosemary is currently reading Security Studies at Leiden University in the Netherlands.

Everything in life has a cycle. We seek to raise awareness in urban and rural waste reduction as well as responsible consumption, and to show that a high Everything in life has a cycle. We seek to raise awareness in urban and rural waste reduction as well as responsible consumption, and to show that a high generation of solid waste (known as garbage), and its improper handling, is one of the main causes of problems related to health, the environment, society, and politics. These problems have been accentuated in recent years due to the increase in population, production, and consumption patterns. Through workshops and a creation of tools that promote the concept of Circular Economy, Responsible Consumption, and Revaluation of Waste, we intend to demonstrate that it is possible to carry out a way of life without waste, where waste is just a part of a new life cycle, not the end. Without affecting the ecosystem, our sole purpose is to safeguard and protect the environment and all of it’s natural resources while using renewable energy. www.planetaepicentre.org Facebook – epicentre Instagram – epicentre_uio ______________________ Gustavo Redín

Con más de 45 países en América Latina, parece difícil encontrar un elemento cultural capaz de unir al imaginario social de todos estos pueblos que se reconocen a Con más de 45 países en América Latina, parece difícil encontrar un elemento cultural capaz de unir al imaginario social de todos estos pueblos que se reconocen a sí mismos cómo latinoamericanos. Sin embargo, es imposible negar que Latinoamérica respira y vive su música pues esta es un ícono de orgullo para cada región y es también, en reiteradas ocasiones, un unificador cultural capaz de borrar las fronteras políticas y lingüísticas que nos dividen burdamente. La identidad cultural de la región es una gran amalgama de características, ritos, sonidos, personalidades, pero en esta ocasión mostraremos como la guitarra, un instrumento de origen europeo toma una posición central en la construcción de la identidad latinoamericana. En este taller hablaremos sobre su rol cómo unificador de la identidad Latinoamericana, haciendo un breve repaso de su historia en el continente, una descripción de sus características y naturaleza, además de demostrar el importante rol que tiene la cultura para avanzar en el cumplimiento de los ODS. Finalmente, brindaremos una mirada al futuro de la preservación cultural, la participación juvenil en un mundo hiperconectado y la importancia de los ODS ______________________ Fernando Morales nació en Quito, Ecuador el 28 de diciembre de 1998.

Saturday October 24 — Session 10 — 18:00-19:00 UTC Strand: SDG 13
As the novel coronavirus spread across the world, social activity grounded to a Saturday October 24 — Session 10 — 18:00-19:00 UTC Strand: SDG 13 As the novel coronavirus spread across the world, social activity grounded to a halt in many countries. Governments in dozens of nations instituted social distancing measures meant to slow the spread of the virus. This included the closure of restaurants, mask mandates, and bans of gatherings with substantial numbers of people, including sporting events and concerts. The implications for global climate activism are obvious. How do you execute a mass mobilization-based strategy in a social distancing context? How do you express virtually without taking to the streets? How do you maintain interest in an issue that has often taken a back seat to others in the middle and post world of a pandemic? ____________________ Neeshad Shafi is an environmentalist, speaker, and founder of the Arab Youth Climate Movement Qatar.

Esto se realizará a partir de un enfoque de análisis basado en la comprensión de las características generacionales propias de los últimos millennials y los centennials, así como su relación con las generaciones que les anteceden. También revisaremos el rol de las redes sociales, el contenido de las mismas y las recientes protestas y movilizaciones sociales que han tomado lugar en el margen de la crisis del covid-19.

How to start an MUN club with no money and in Sunday October 25 — Session 13 — 14:30-15:30 UTC — Strand: SDG 4 How to start an MUN club with no money and in a country where on one is familiar with the word MUN? The idea of starting Hope for Education and Leadership in Afghanistan (HELA), the first ever model UN organization in Afghanistan, started in 2015. At first it was just an MUN club. Now with the passage of time it has become a national organization, running MUN conferences in every province of Afghanistan.. In this presentation, we will share the HELA story and will tell you how to successfully start a change maker initiative without any financial resources, just like we did. At HELA organization we are empowering youth through Model UN trainings and conferences throughout Afghanistan, raising awareness about UNODC mandates, empowering women in business and fighting towards corruption in the public sectors of Afghanistan. Currently HELA organization is working in four major provinces of Afghanistan and training over than 500 unique university students in Model UN each year. _____________________ My name is Negina Shinwari, I am currently working with HELA as Programmes Manager and Leader of the Women Empowerment project. I am studying Medicine at Ariana University Afghanistan. I first came to HELA in 2015 and was a member of HELA delegation to THIMUN Qatar International conference 2016, which was the most interesting and full of experience trip of my life and onward then I promised myself to serve my country and bring changes in the life of youth as HELA do. So I stick to the HELA team and work with them in different parts to help my people and also develop my skills. My dream is to be one of a good changemaker to this world! My name is Rahmatullah Hamdard, a graduate student at Dunya University of Afghanistan, holding Masters in Business Administration with concentration in Public Administration.

Since childhood I was dreaming to bring positive changes to my society, bring hopes to the lives of so many hopeless Afghan youth, fight towards wrong beings in my country, and I have fulfilled those dreams when I was only 19 years old by founding HELA organization (the word HELA means hope in one of Afghan national languages), because the philosophy of my life is that; “The world will have remembered you only, if you leave a legacy behind”.

Al ver la educación En esta charla se mostrará un punto de vista diferente sobre la educación, enfocado en el Objetivo de Desarrollo Sostenible 4: Educación de Calidad. Al ver la educación estancada en un método extremadamente tradicional, surge la pregunta ¿que tan eficaz es el sistema educativo actual? Asimismo, se plantearán perspectivas psicológicas relacionadas con el efecto que tiene la misma en la mentalidad de las personas, y se propondrán ideas sobre la ejecución de la educación. De esta manera, el taller busca fomentar la participación de los jóvenes al potenciar su activismo y reclamar su derecho fundamental a una educación de calidad. Además, se considerará al autoaprendizaje como una iniciativa innovadora para ser empleada en el contexto actual. _________________________ Camila Criollo Camila Criollo es una estudiante de Psicología en la Universidad de las Américas (Udla) en Quito, Ecuador.
