The annual Model United Nations at RCN is a moment for the 1st year class to bond in something intellectually challenging, emotionally engaging, and also a little physically demanding. All of those things game together, more of one, depending on who you were and what each student needed from the week.
 
The conference was facilitated by a dedicated team of 2nd years who poured their hearts and souls into making the experience exciting and fun. This year we had even more topics with the addition of more committees spread across the Security Council, as well as a Historical Security that went back in time to solve some issues from 30 years ago, UN Women, the Economic and Social Council, the UN Office of Drugs and Crime, the UN Environmental Programme, the World Health Organisation, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, the Human Rights Council, and the Special Conference.
 
This was the longest preparation for the conference for a while. The second-year chairs have been working on their committees since October, having been choosing through a mix of presentations, interviews, and even some cloak-and-dagger politics. This year the 1st year cohort got to engage with MUN training as an EAC, and the weekly practice shone through as many of the speakers stood up and delivered stirring performances. All students also had three in-depth preparation sessions over a month to get everyone on the same page. Hats off to all the committee chairs and the security team for deftly managing all the interventions and the personalities in all the sessions.
 
On Thursday, we had two very inspiring talks.
 
The first was with Fioralba Shkodra, the Head of the United Nations Resident Coordinator’s Office in Serbia. She has worked with Sustainable Development Goals for over a decade in multiple countries. It was good to learn from someone engaged with making aspirational SDGs become achieved goals. She helped us appreciate how she works on both long-term continuing programs and emergencies.
 
The later talk was with Alexander Stubb, a former Finnish Prime Minister. He shared his life as lawmaker, government minister, and prime minister and the demands of each role. He spoke about his life in the European Investment Bank, and his return to academia, and he gave us many ideas on how we can contribute across different spheres.
 
The General Assembly debate on the final day focused on protecting journalists worldwide. You can imagine how fun and hectic getting agreement among a hundred delegates can be – even in something we can all agree on.

At the Red Cross Nordic United World College, students don’t just attend classes; they also participate in various unique experiences that allow them to develop their skills and passions, challenge themselves, and connect with others. These weeks, the second-year students are taking their mock exams, while the first-year students have been busy skiing, learning first aid, and participating in a Model United Nations conference.

Mock Exams: Preparing for the Real Thing

The mock exams are an essential part of preparing for the upcoming International Baccalaureate (IB) exams in May. By taking these practice tests, students get a real-life experience of what the actual exams will be like, helping them to identify areas that need improvement and ensuring that they are well-prepared for the final tests. The grades they receive from the mock exams will also be part of their yearly grades, making it crucial that they take this opportunity seriously and learn from any mistakes.

Ski Week: Embracing the Nordic Winter

While the second-year students were busy with their exams, the first-year students had an opportunity to experience the Nordic winter during the annual ski week, or “friluftsveka.” For several days, the students skied through the mountains in Stryn, building fires in the snow, and even overnighting outdoors. This experience allowed them to step out of their comfort zones, and connect with nature, and each other. Many of these students had never been on skis before, but they showed incredible endurance and a real sense of adventure.

First Aid Course: Saving Lives

The RCN First Aid Course, a mandatory 12-hour course for all first-year students. Led by David Robertson, a teacher of Biology and Chemistry and a qualified member of the Norwegian Search and Rescue Corps, this course is based on the Norwegian Red Cross and the Røde Kors program. Students who excel in the course have the opportunity to join the college’s first aid team and learn advanced first aid and search and rescue techniques, with a focus on wilderness first aid qualification. They also receive instructor training and get to teach the 12-hour course to first-year students the following year.

Model United Nations: Developing Global Perspectives

The annual Model United Nations at RCN is a moment for the 1st year class to bond in something intellectually challenging, emotionally engaging, and also a little physically demanding. All of those things game together, more of one depending on who you were and what each student needed from the week.

The conference was facilitated by a dedicated team of 2nd years, who poured their hearts and souls into making the experience interesting and fun. This year we had even more topics with the addition of more committees spread across the Security Council, as well a Historical Security that went back in time to solve some issues from 30 years ago, UN Women, the Economic and Social Council, the UN Office of Drugs and Crime, the UN Environmental Programme, the World Health Organisation, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, the Human Rights Council, and the Special Conference.

We featured inspiring talks by Fioralba Shkodra, the Head of the United Nations Resident Coordinator’s Office in Serbia, and Alexander Stubb, a former Finnish Prime Minister. The General Assembly debate on the final day focused on protecting journalists around the world.

This experience allows students to develop their global perspectives, research and debate current global issues, and work collaboratively with others to find solutions to complex problems. It’s a fantastic opportunity to develop their critical thinking, public speaking, and diplomacy skills.

Project-Based Learning Week: Exploring New Interests

After the mock exams, the second-year students were engaged in Project-Based Learning Week. Some students were involved in running the First Aid course and the Model United Nations for first-year students, while others had other projects, such as skiing, snow-caving, arts, bridge, wood-fired
oven baking, mental health first aid training, and many more. This week allows students to explore their interests, work collaboratively with others, and develop new skills.

RCN’s special weeks offer a range of unique experiences that allow students to develop their skills and passions, challenge themselves, and connect with others. From mock exams and skiing to first aid courses and Model United Nations, RCN students are engaged in meaningful and transformative experiences that will help them grow into responsible and compassionate global citizens.

“The Changemaker Project has made me more aware of social issues in the world and given me a chance to make a project that will make a difference. It has given me the tools and taught me how I can make a change for someone else. I have learned that even though some changes are small, it does not make them less important. Every little change means something.” wrote Laura Maria Riisager, our alumna, about The Changemaker Project.

“The Changemaker Project” invites individuals from all over the world to be part of a global community of change-makers and participate in a design challenge aimed at creating a better world. In this project, participants will be exposed to various social and environmental justice issues and be equipped with the necessary tools and skills to tackle these problems with innovation and creativity.

In the project, students are challenged to tackle a chosen problem, guided by an online course that provides valuable problem-solving skills and utilizes Stanford’s Design Thinking process. They connect and share ideas with students from diverse backgrounds through online discussion forums and video calls, and receive support from mentors who are experts in various fields as they develop your project. The teams submit a pitch video showcasing their project, which is evaluated by a team of judges. Finalists have the chance to pitch their idea to venture capitalists and philanthropists for funding.

This year four RCN teams participated in the contest with the following projects:

The Faroe Islands for Human Rights: There is a lack of Faroese educational material on human rights. This language barrier makes it difficult to get young people engaged in human rights issues.  The Faroe Islands for Human Rights aims to educate the Faroese youth on human rights in their mother tongue through an educational book. (Oline Lykke Grand)

Shelter Kits for Local Shelters in Ukraine: As people in Ukraine continue to suffer from constant Russian bomb shellings and drone attacks and have to seek shelter when air raid sirens go off, the aim of the project is to equip these shelters with shelter kits. The kits will include First Aid kits, pain medicines, emergency blankets, and hygiene products for women. The goal is to assemble and deliver at least ten shelter kits to Valeria’s hometown Irpin, which was under occupation and suffered 70% destruction. (Valeriia Ivanova and Emily Gordon)

The Little Lamp project is about donating wheelchairs in Eswatini since there is a great need for wheelchairs there. As part of the project, the team will also conduct a workshop and teach people how to fix wheelchairs since there are very few people who can fix wheelchairs in the country. Eventually fix broken wheelchairs for community members. (Nongcebo Pertunia Nsingwane)

LEAF Education is a project designed to provide online environmental education for teenagers in disadvantaged communities around the world. (LEAF EAC)

Not only did all four teams earn a spot in the competition, but each team also secured funding for their innovative projects. Even more impressive, three of the teams exceeded their funding goals, setting a new standard for success. We extend our warmest congratulations to all of the participating teams for their hard work, perseverance, and impressive achievements. Their innovative ideas and dedication to their projects are sure to make a significant impact in the world. Keep up the great work!

At RCN, students receive comprehensive support throughout their two-year program. This includes well-being support at the residential houses, as well as academic support from subject teachers and the Learning Support department. To address individual needs, students with learning challenges are referred for formal assessment by an educational psychologist and an Individual Education Plan (IEP) is created.

The IEP is customized to each student’s specific needs and serves as a roadmap to support them in reaching their educational goals more easily than they otherwise would. It provides insights into the student’s challenges, and outlines strategies for both the teacher and student to use for success. In line with IB guidelines, RCN’s IEPs aim to “celebrate learning success, build on strengths, and overcome difficulties to develop the whole student.”

The case managers of the Learning Support team work with subject teachers and students to create IEPs, which are then discussed in open forums with all stakeholders. The goal is to ensure that every student has the support they need to reach their full potential.
