Cyprus Forum 2022

​Global Perspectives students had the opportunity to attend the Cyprus Forum 2022 after school on September 29th and 30th. 

The Cyprus Forum is an annual conference which is the largest policy-making conference in Cyprus. The Cyprus Forum brings together local and foreign political leaders, important public and private sector figures, the media, academia and civic society to initiate dialogue, exchange ideas and find new and creative solutions to key areas of public policy. This year the Forum's central theme was 'Inclusivity: Unleashing The Power Of Diversity.'

"The Cyprus Forum 2022 was a delightful and insightful experience of the inner workings of the world that made me think. It's a great experience and just not something that school would be able to teach you; I would recommend it to anyone who's interested in a wide variety of topics ranging from renewable energy to mortality."
Fivos Loucaides, Year 6, Former Global Perspectives student

"Attending the Cyprus Forum was incredibly educational and enjoyable as we got to hear the ideas and viewpoints of specialists on current issues. It was interesting to hear other perspectives and to learn more about topics that interest me."
Elay Sener, Year 5, Global Perspectives student

"I enjoyed Cyprus Forum; it was a great experience for me. I liked that each speaker provided their own opinion and brought different perspectives. I also enjoyed learning more about recreant topics and how they affect Cyprus. I especially enjoyed the talk about 'Mobilising Business and Finance against Modern Slavery' and 'Circular Economy." 
Defne Oychoum, Year 5, Global Perspectives student

"The Cyprus Forum was an amazing experience where I learned and became more aware of certain topics through professionals. This has helped me educate myself more on global matters and has encouraged me to even look into these by myself. It was very enjoyable, and listening to contrasting views of professionals was very interesting."
Artemis Riga, Year 5, Global Perspectives student

Students were accompanied by Global Perspectives teacher Ms Luzdary Hammad-Stavrou and History teacher Ms Maria Constantinidou.
