Round Square Singapore Conference: Wednesday 7 October
The last day of the conference started with a keynote address by Nidhi Kapur, a former student of UWCSEA who after graduating became a humanitarian aid worker. She has lived and worked in a number of trouble spots around the world and is presently based in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, working on gender equality issues in this war torn country. Later baraza groups met for the last time. This proved to be an emotional moment as it would be the final work/discussion session from which, throughout the week, friendships and alliances had been welded.
In the evening our delegates were one of three cultural presentations in which four students danced tango while being accompanied by piano and violin. It was very well received by an enthusiastic audience. Other presentations came from Kenya and the Middle East/S.E. Asia. After dinner delegates enjoyed a social/musical extravaganza!
Some delegations are flying to their respective countries this evening and throughout the night. We shall stay tomorrow, Thursday in Singapore and begin our 40 hour journey home late on Friday night.
