The event was open by the Italian ambasador to the UN, Sebastiani Cardi:
“The UN was born from a dream, after the War world, to create a better world and today you also share a dream that I hope can become real with our passion for diplomacy and international politics, because we need a contribution of forces and ideas”.
The students discussed current global issues on twenty selected small committees. Have a look at the video:
