On July 11, MUNRFE Executive Director Alexandra Kosyreva and NMUN-NY 2019 team adviser Anna Timokhina were honored to participate in the Graduation Ceremony for 120 best FEFU students. It is a traditional event at which the most outstanding students who contributed a lot to academic and social life in FEFU received their Diploma.
MUNRFE members show outstanding results on a regular basis, that is why no TOP-100 or TOP-120 goes without MUNRFE participation. It shows the reliability of the Organization and a high level of training for its members.
Alexandra and Anna have immensely contributed to the development of the Organization. First of all, they took part in several MUN conferences in Russia and abroad and achieved high results on behalf of MUNRFE. Secondly, they organized a large number of projects ranging from Club to international scale. Finally, they have always been ready to give a helping hand or a piece of advice as people who know what MUNRFE is and share its values with everyone.
Following the results of the FEMUN 2019 conducted from May 14 – 17, the recipients of Diplomacy Awards who would represent MUNRFE to Yale MUN Korea 2019 were selected. Those delegates showed their capacities to perform successfully at the Conference.
The preparation of these talented and ambitious people will be carried out by MUNRFE Vladivostok Club President Daria Zlydar. Meanwhile, MUNRFE Executive Director Alexandra Kosyreva will ensure the smooth transition of experience and knowledge by performing as a second adviser.
Both advisers already possess immense experience in frames of MUNs locally and abroad as well as occupying various management positions within MUNRFE.
