The UWC RCN community was privileged to host Dr Musimbi Kanyoro, the Chair of the UWC International Board, who took time out of her visit to Denmark for a brief visit to RCN. Even Dr Kanyoro, with her experience of working with and travelling to the Nordic region, was amazed at the remote beauty of our fjord, travelling as many of us do on the ferry that makes its way from Bergen, up the western coast.

Her visit was brief and significant in the connections she made with us all, attending meetings and classes, joining our Madkulturen project, making pizza with the Rektor and sharing her experiences during a World Today session. She has left us with a strong sense of the importance of UWC in a turbulent world, we thank her for taking time to visit us to discover the very special things that happen in this remote and significant part of the UWC movement.
