满帆 faculty and students came together on October 14, 2014 to announce the winners of the United Nations Climate Change Project. 的 Embassies of France asked 满帆 students and grads “to create assets that raise awareness, propose solutions, and educate audiences on the topics of climate change, 可持续性, and conservation issues facing our world.” 26 students submitted work in the categories of art, 音乐, 电影, 和市场营销, and 20 faculty members supported student endeavors by providing mentorship.

电影 主要 迪翁Ramdeen, decided to tap a few of her other talents for the cause. She submitted the original composition “Changing Our World,” which earned her first place in the 音乐 category. She also placed third in the art category with a graphic design piece titled “的 Great Melt.”

“It’s been a great honor and privilege to participate,” said Dionne. “成长, I always wanted to work with the United Nations, so when the opportunity presented itself I thought, this is my chance to do something for an organization I’ve always admired.”

的 winning assets will be showcased in a special exhibition at 满帆. 的y’ll also be considered to promote panels on climate change across North America and at the 2015 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Paris, France.
