Earlier this month, 19 students from the Palmer Trinity School (PTS) High School Model United Nations Team traveled to Punta Gorda, Florida to participate in the Florida High School Model United Nations (FHSMUN) Gulf Coast 6 Conference.
The PTS students represented the countries of France, Brazil, Malawi, Norway, Sudan, Laos, and Kuwait as they debated and collaborated with other nations over various issues including the ongoing crisis in Syria, localizing UN Sustainable Development Goals, engendering employment and entrepreneurship for women, and responding to the global alert for pandemics and emerging diseases.
PTS faculty leaders Derek Smith and Ania Fernandez accompanied the MUN team.
“We are exceedingly proud of our Model UN students for skillfully representing their respective nations and Palmer Trinity School,” Patrick Roberts, Head of School.
