Youth Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting at Parliament.

Sandra Pooch —

Dominic Wilson 9SDES and Meg Byers 13LSS represented the United Kingdom at the Youth Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting at Parliament in August.

Representatives of schools from all around the country debated for two days on important issues facing the Commonwealth and the World. Issues covered included Refugees, Trade and Climate Change. Students researched the countries they represented and debated from the perspective of the countries they represented. The debate reflected the shared and at times different values held by the countries in the Commonwealth.
