Thinking and making an exhibition.

EcoArt is an original project intended for those who want to discover the professions linked within the world of art and exhibitions. Over a year, a curatorial team (or a group of students) meet once a month to discover the world of exhibitions in its complexity to then curate their own exhibition. They learn all the subtleties of this profession in different phases: preparation workshops, define the theme and curatorial intention, and lastly select artists and their work. Each year, at the end of the process of taking initiative, creativity, teamwork, engagement and a critical eye, a contemporary art exhibition is created at the Centre des arts inviting major artists from the contemporary scene around Europe ! An opportunity to start your own contemporary exhibition for the Centenary of the Foundation !

The Student’s League of Nations (SLN) is a realistic simulation of the United Nations General Assembly by young people aged 16–20 from schools throughout the world. It is a successor to the Students’ United  Nations (SUN), founded by the International School of Geneva in 1953 – at the initiative of Robert Leach,  a historian who had a long and distinguished career at the school – and the first of its kind in the world.  SUN was renamed SLN in 1983 in honor of the League of Nations, the world’s first comprehensive attempt to settle differences peacefully rather than through brute force. SUN/SLN is, therefore, the world’s oldest simulation of the UN by students and the only one that takes place within the premises of the  United Nations Organization. The objective is to participate in a realistic simulation of the United Nations  General Assembly in the role of delegates. The rules stipulate that each delegation is composed of two students who may not represent their own country. After a selection process and registration, the students have a couple of months to propose resolutions, four of which will be debated during the conference.

Day and venue: 11th and 13th December, United Nations

Student League of Nations (SLN)

Language of instruction: English and French 

Supervisor: Elizabeth Waldman  & maura.wernz@ecolint.ch 

Contact: elizabeth.waldman@ecolint.ch & maura.wernz@ecolint.ch

The Student’s League of Nations (SLN) is a realistic simulation of the United Nations General Assembly by young people aged 16–20 from schools throughout the world. It is a successor to the Students’ United  Nations (SUN), founded by the International School of Geneva in 1953 – at the initiative of Robert Leach,  a historian who had a long and distinguished career at the school – and the first of its kind in the world.  SUN was renamed SLN in 1983 in honor of the League of Nations, the world’s first comprehensive attempt to settle differences peacefully rather than through brute force. SUN/SLN is, therefore, the world’s oldest simulation of the UN by students and the only one that takes place within the premises of the  United Nations Organization. The objective is to participate in a realistic simulation of the United Nations  General Assembly in the role of delegates. The rules stipulate that each delegation is composed of two students who may not represent their own country. After a selection process and registration, the students have a couple of months to propose resolutions, four of which will be debated during the conference.

Time and venue, application and registration: Monday and Tuesday December 4 and 5.

SNOW Club à lieu tous les lundis matins pendant la pause dans le pavillon des langues en salle 03. Ce club consiste à sensibiliser et mobiliser pour la cause du changement climatique des jeunes passionnés de montagne, outdoor activities,... Durant ce club nous discutons, débattons sur des sujets choisis par les membres du club (ex : la consommation d'habits, l'énergie, la mobilité, la coupe du monde au Qatar,...) Nous essayons de trouver des moyens qui pourraient aider à réduire / améliorer ses "problèmes". Nous organisons plusieurs événements durant l'année, qui nous permettront de récolter de l'argent pour l'association que nous supportons (protect our winters) et de créer des actions pour interagir avec les autres élèves et profs. Nos plus gros projets sont : une projection de film avec un échange ensuite + un ski event de façon écologique (organisé entre les membres du club). Ce club à été construit pour créer des liens entre jeunes pour parler et prendre actions pour cette cause dans une ambiance positive et fun!

At Active Aid, we believe in the power of education to shape a brighter future for all, but we need your support. With your generosity, we can unite and collect as many books as possible to provide the essential scholarly equipment for those less fortunate. Donating is easy; simply drop your gently-used or new books(Only English) into the designated box marked with our colorful Active Aid poster, located in the middle or secondary school library. Your contribution will bridge the educational gap, empowering young minds and making a significant impact. Please also help us by spreading the word and encouraging others to join our cause. Together, we can make education accessible to all, one book at a time.
