Leadership at the Global Summit: Creating Positive Change

Written by: Omayma Cherkaoui 

MUN Impact is honored to have Andrea van Herk speak at our Global Summit next Wednesday the 22nd.  She is a part-time lecturer at the NHL Stenden University of Applied Science in International Business, Coach and Project Manager for Design-Based Education. She has her own company named House of A in copywriting and coaching, along with earning her Master’s Degree in (financial-economic) Criminology and another Master’s Degree in Financial Law. With years of knowledge and experience, you are bound to acquire lifelong knowledge from our distinguished speaker.

In her session, Andrea van Herk will share how you can fulfill your potential as a leader by making small daily changes and how you can have a healthier and balanced mindset to manifest a more balanced life.

You will learn valuable skills to be a changemaker by starting with yourself. This is important as any leader must be compassionate to themselves first, as well as being empathetic to others. Attend this session to learn, in her own words, ‘what it means to be the change you wish to see in this world.’

Andrea van Herk will be speaking on Wednesday, 22nd July (Session 6) at 11:00-11:45 UTC.

 

Singapore-based students Abigail Bilsland, Avni Sharma, and Leah Verma will also be talking about the theme of positive change, but with a focus on discrimination. 

Between all the three presenters, they have participated in a total of 37 Model United Nations (MUN) conferences. Their international perspective ensures that you will learn a lot from their presentation.

Discrimination is often the root cause of many social, economic, and political problems of today. As a leader, you can play a role to combat discrimination by local efforts. The three presenters will show you how you can do so through their presentation, two activities, and a Q&A, all closely linked to SDG #16, Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions. Abigail Bilsland, Avni Sharma, and Leah Verma will be speaking on Wednesday, 22nd July (Session 5) at 10:00-10:45 UTC.

 

Do not miss out on these exciting presentations, to learn how you can be the best leader you can.
