”I was interested in the UN and looking for an opportunity to get to know further about it. I could learn more about the UN thanks to my teachers. The most memorable part of this workshop was a discussion session, and it was really great to directly ask and get answers from my teachers.”
(Hyeon-mi Kim, third grade at Hyewon Girls´ High School)
”“I took this workshop because I was curious about the UN and getting a job there. It was really helpful since I was not just listening about the UN but could evaluate myself whether I’m really applicable for that job. I appreciate the teachers for preparing so many things.”
(So-hee Shin, 1st grade majoring in English literature in Seoul Women’s University)
