Tutors
The tutors for the subject will vary from year to year. However, its important to note the founding tutor and research assistant, Josh Pallas. Josh is now a PhD candidate at the University of New South Wales and completed a Bachelor of Arts (Hons)/ Bachelor of Laws (Hons) at the University of Wollongong. Josh has interned and volunteered with organisations like the NSW Council for Civil Liberties, Red Cross and the Global Poverty Project. He has participated in many student run Model United Nations Conferences and won a number of awards. His knowledge of Model United Nations was vital in establishing this subject and his enthusiasm kept us going at difficult times.
