FireStarter 2017 was successfully conducted
On August 16-29, MUNRFE has successfully conducted its traditional summer program FireStarter 2017 in the Far Eastern Leisure Center «Ritm-10». 22 bright and ambitious high-school students from 7 cities of the Russian Far East have completed the program. The participants had an opportunity to fully plunge into the English-speaking atmosphere, as well as to develop their leadership potential. In frames of the program the participants accomplished a set of lectures and trainings organized by MUNRFE members. Moreover, all of them were constantly involved into numerous interactive activities of the camp. The camp was attended by the Second Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Office in Vladivostok – Mr. Eugene S. Volosastov who has already contributed to the development of young leaders during FireStarter 2015 as well as other activities of MUNRFE.
At the end of the program the participants had a chance to try out the roles of diplomats by taking part in the Final Conference, in frames of which two committees were simulated – the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the UN Security Council. In accordance with the work of the committees Ruslan Burangulov (Vladivostok) and Ruslana Pavlova (Khabarovsk) were recognized as Outstanding Delegates with the main prize of free participation in MUNRFE Annual Conference 2017 organized in December on the premises of Far Eastern Federal University.

Krasnitskaya and her Working Group namely – Ms. Julia Nedelkina, Ms. Diana Novikova, Ms. Anna Timokhina, Ms. Veronika Tkachenko, Ms. Ekaterina Tretiakova, Ms. Alexandra Kosyreva and Ms. Ekaterina Sadovskaya.
