case study competition on global issues

Covenant

Covenant was a case study competition that focuses on global crises. This was open to undergraduates of the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. Covenant 20 was inspired by Covenant 21 and was a major breakthrough in the journey of RMMUN. The reason is that Covenant 21 was planned from the very beginning stages with the aim of bringing new project ideas into the Rotaract movement. Not to mention the basic objective of developing the soft skills of the participants. Covenant accepted submissions under two topics where two of which were based on ongoing Rotaract projects.
