On Monday 5th December, 9 Royal Russell students attended the 15th Benenden MUN conference, representing France (CJ Coleman-Benjamin, Alexander Chesters, Johan Prinsloo), Canada (Jeffry Tang, Nana Otchere-Darko, Joseph Venkatasami) and the French Polynesia (Daniel Petkov, Zoe Spellings, Caprice Walsh) in the Security Council, Human Rights Council and the Health, Economic and Financial, and Social Humanitarian and Cultural Committees. Whether experienced or first-time delegates, our students were a credit to our school and got involved in debates on topics such as the foreign intervention in conflict areas, the question of brain drain with the migration of skilled human capital to developed countries, the question of pharmaceutical regulation, the protection of labourers in the manufacturing industry and the question of protecting the professional freedom of journalists. Congratulations to all participants.
