The U.N. comes to Ohio Northern
Nearly 100 high school students from as far away as Indianapolis and Cincinnati participated in a Model UN on the ONU campus on Saturday.
Before arriving in Ada, the students were given a country to represent and studied that nation, especially its politics. Then, on campus, the students voted in a mock General Assembly how they thought the country they represented would vote.
The difficult issues discussed were:
• Eradication of chemical and nuclear weapons;
• Managing the effects of natural disasters and climate change;
• Refugee crisis and protection of human rights.
ONU Prof. Nusta Carranza Ko served as director of the all-day event held in McIntosh Center. The program, held here annually, is hosted by the ONU department of history, political science and geography.
