FLAG FORUM was especially curated for students of grade 9 on Friday, 5th April to serve as an ideal stepping stone into the global arena to prepare for the future.
We were honoured to have the esteemed company of Mr. Shamit Gandhi , Founder, Dizrupt/Digitlal Marketing Agency and the forum was headed by our faculty Mr Pankaj Pamani along with Head of School Ms. Arwa Baldiwala.
Students were tasked with solving global issues through research, drafting, lobbying and debate. This enabled them to gain practical knowledge of worldly affairs by analysing and understanding their respective country’s foreign policies namely USA, India, France, Mexico, United Kingdom, Kenya, and China. Various topics that revolved around international trade, treaties, terrorism , collaboration & aid were discussed to pass suitable resolutions.
A great takeaway was understanding the fine art of negotiation pertaining to purposeful exchange and fostering consensus amongst the different groups.
Students took on the roles of delegates, speakers, and chairs and it was a unique experience for the winners as well as all the participants. We truly hope that through such platforms we empower young minds to broaden their horizon as they work towards a peaceful and free world!
