  • The G20 at Hmc Boston
    Harvard Model Congress Boston 2020 GUIDE TO THE G20 Edited by Ravi Shah and Harnek Gulati INTRODUCTION Welcome to the Group of Twenty! The G20 is a forum for the world’s nineteen largest economies—Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States, plus the European Union. The group allows for dialogue among the world’s most advanced and emerging economies. The group’s main tasks consist of addressing global economic and financial issues—at least one delegate at the conference will represent each country. You, the delegates at HMC 2019, will play the roles of these officials, representing their respective governments or institutions during the summit. At this time of global financial crisis and economic slowdown, the G20 has been instrumental to the stabilization of the international financial system and the coordination of macroeconomic policies among the most important economic players in the international arena. During our conference, you will represent the opinions of their governments on political and environmental matters, bringing each government’s perspective regarding the restoration of political stability and environmental sustainability to the table. You are expected to challenge each other on political matters in order to defend the interests of your respective countries, all while keeping global cooperation and the elaboration of a common strategy as your ultimate goals. HISTORY OF THE G20 The G20 was founded in 1999 as a response to the financial crises of the late 1990s. It replaced the short-lived G33 and G22.

  • April 7, 2021 Dear Parents and Guardians, I Hope
    April 7, 2021 Dear Parents and Guardians, I hope you had a nice time with your Brooks School children and families over Spring Break. With nearly two weeks of classes having passed since we returned to school, we wanted to be in touch with our updated thinking and planning about the balance of the 2020-2021 school year. We have just under two months to go until we reach Prize Day for the class of 2021 on Sunday, June 6, and are eager to make the most of the time we have left with one another in this very different year. While what follows comes with the standard COVID-19 disclaimer and is subject to change, we are currently confident that what we are aiming for can be reached successfully if we all do our part to keep the community healthy. It has been exciting to have more students on campus than was the case in the fall or winter, and we want to do all we can to stay fully intact through early June. Spring Session We have been in touch a fair amount over the past couple of weeks with elements of our plans for these final two-plus months of the school year. You can continue to access these updates and others that will come through the spring on the school's COVID-19 Updates website page. As always, please let us know if you have questions. For now, here is what we have in mind as we look ahead to what we hope will be our best stretch of the year: Intake Testing - We received all the results from our final round of intake testing for all in-person students at the end of the day yesterday, and are pleased to report that we have done well getting the spring off to a good start.
