UN Day: Workshop Supervisor

Today I was part of the annual UN Day event at our school. My role was to be a “Co-supervisor” at a child rights workshop. The workshop was designed primarily around group based activities. Some of them were:

• prioritizing child rights issues
• conducting mock debates on child rights
• brainstorming viable solutions to reduce or eliminate child abuse

This experience taught me how to work collaboratively with others, helped me build new skills and leadership abilities and increased my knowledge of child rights issues. It is important to recognize that this type of workshop has global significance because it is a contemporary, modern problem which is shared by all people.
