(By Catalina Silva, English Department Coordinato and insegnante di Inglese- Media superiore)<\/em><\/p>\n

Last Monday, October 6, our 8th-grade students held the first Model United Nations (MUN) contest at our school \u2014 a remarkable display of our students\u2019 growing communication, research, and leadership skills.<\/p>\n

This contest was part of the Innovation Project granted to the English Department last semester, aimed at promoting meaningful learning experiences through critical thinking, global awareness, and public speaking in English.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the semester, all 8th graders worked in class to learn how to represent different countries in the MUN context, researching international issues, diplomatic language, and global policies to prepare for this culminating event.<\/p>\n

The debate topic for this edition was \u201cShould AI be limited in education and social media?\u201d Delegates represented a diverse range of countries, bringing multiple perspectives to the discussion:<\/p>\n

Mauria El\u00edas \u2013\u00a0Germany<\/em><\/p>\n

Emma Savastano \u2013\u00a0Chile<\/em><\/p>\n

Bel\u00e9n Arcos \u2013\u00a0Japan<\/em><\/p>\n

Emma Torres \u2013\u00a0Brazil<\/em><\/p>\n

Matteo Mencagli \u2013\u00a0Italy<\/em><\/p>\n

Jose Tom\u00e1s Rigo-Righi \u2013\u00a0United Kingdom<\/em><\/p>\n

Rocco Mussuto \/ Santiago Mangiamarchi \u2013\u00a0United States of America<\/em><\/p>\n

Emilia Marcel \/ Antonia Salazar \u2013\u00a0Nigeria<\/em><\/p>\n

Octavio Salas \u2013\u00a0India<\/em><\/p>\n

The event was hosted by two senior students,\u00a0Juan Luis Volante Torres<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Alessandra Mussuto Doberti<\/em>, both former members of the school\u2019s debate team, who guided the session with professionalism and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

The jury was composed of students from the FCE Elective English course \u2014\u00a0Julieta Guerrero, Camila Mercader,<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Agustina Latorre<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 who took on the challenging task of evaluating the delegates\u2019 performance.<\/p>\n

While the judges deliberated, a group of senior students from IV\u00b0A delivered a powerful rendition of Martin Luther King Jr.\u2019s \u201cI Have a Dream\u201d speech, adding inspiration to the event\u2019s closing moments.<\/p>\n

We warmly congratulate Octavio Salas, representing\u00a0India<\/em>, who received the award for Best Delegate. Kudos to all the participants who stepped up to debate such an important and current topic in a foreign language \u2014 taking one step forward in becoming true\u00a0Cittadini del mondo.<\/em><\/p>\n
