On Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd August, The Grange School will welcome 160 visiting pupils for a new edition of Gryphon MUN, our annual Model United Nations Conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over two days, participants will take part in eight committees, debating and proposing solutions to some of today\u2019s major global challenges. Topics will include how best to contain a potential Ebola outbreak, promoting ecotourism in areas of high poverty, and protecting the rights of women in displacement contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through debate, negotiation and the exchange of different perspectives, Gryphon MUN provides pupils with an opportunity to develop their leadership, critical thinking, communication and collaboration skills, while gaining a deeper understanding of how international challenges are addressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year, we are also delighted to welcome journalist Constanza Santa Mar\u00eda as a special guest during Saturday\u2019s programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We look forward to two inspiring days of debate, learning and collaboration, bringing together pupils from different schools and creating opportunities to engage with global issues from a range of perspectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
