Organized by the International Ferney-Voltaire High School, FerMUN is a play role game setting based on the United Nations Model. It is designed and opened to high school students worldwide.

This program encourages youth to invest themselves in diplomacy and international relations thanks to simulated debates shaped on the UN model bringing them to better comprehend the difficulties and complexity of problem solving in the contemporary world.

During this 8th edition that took place from 11 to 13 january at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the debates were essentially based on human rights and intellectual property and their part on Development.

FOXTROT International did want to sponsor the Blaise Pascal students to represent the Ivory Coast at this event. Indeed, as our moto says ‘Energy, in the heart of development’, FOXTROT International supports, as much as possible, initiatives, in particular that of the youth, that contributes to the standing of the Ivory Coast.

The Blaise Pascal’s students came back very enthusiastic about this event that gathered more than 600 students from 21 countries and as travel broadens the mind, this experience was reported as unique, passionate and very rewarding.
