Oriane BuiConference Coordinator, Washington International SchoolMy name is Oriane But and I am a Junior at WIS. Although this is my first time organizing the conference, I have been multiple times and thoroughly enjoyed myself.One of my favorite things about the conference are all the different perspectives that are brought in from the students, along with their eagerness to learn about global issues. Last year I served as a leader and really enjoyed leading team bonding activities and getting feed back from the students. I'm definitely looking forward to this year's conference and the conferences to come.
Sol Muñoz
Social Media Coordinator, Washington International School
My name is Sol Muñoz and I am a senior at Washington International School. I have participated in the GIN Conference since my freshman year, first as a participant for two years and then as Global Village leader my Junior year. I have always enjoyed the GIN Conference because it allows students to talk about current world issues that are not always talked about at school. The conference also introduced me to people from other schools and allowed me to dig deeper in my personal role as a leader. I truly believe the skills the conference provides for students will teach them to lead and participate in important discussions.

Masha JohansenI’m a senior at the British International School of Washington, and this is my first year on the leadership team for GIN. I believe that the GIN Conference is an incredible way to engage young people in today’s global issues, and promote the concept of unity in the world we live in. My passions lie in politics, history, culture, and the arts, and I love how GIN can combine all these factors, and more, into a pathway for practical solutions in the future. I hope to help make this year's conference memorable and impactful.

Agustin PereiraConference CoordinatorI am a senior at School Without Walls, and this is my first year as part of the leadership team for GIN. to me, GIN encompasses the various issues surrounding our society, creating both awareness and solutions to problems ranging from the daily ‘covfefe’ of the White House to the tensions of international relations. To say a club that can understand these nuances is necessary in the world we live in today might be a practice in understatement, and I am incredibly excited to help in any way I can this year.
