An outstanding national Model United Nations Assembly event facilitated by the Rotary Club of Canberra Sunrise held at the Museum of Australian Democracy (MoAD) - 17 teams from across Australia, with 47 delegates - a series of truly spectacular debates with some of our nation's brightest students.
 
Guest of Honour - Australian Human Rights Commissioner Lorraine Finlay
 
In 2022-23, Jennifer E. Jones was the first woman to undertake the role of Rotary International President.  And 2022-23 has had much to celebrate. At the MUNA Dinner on Saturday 12 August, Immediate Past President 2022-23 Margaret Atkin presented a Paul Harris Fellow (PHF) award to the Australian Human Rights Commissioner Lorraine Finlay, following her Keynote Speech.  Lorraine was a Sunrise member some 18 years ago. We acknowledged Lorraine's ongoing contributions to peace and goodwill in the world.  She continues to demonstrate Service Above Self. District Governor 2023-24, Andrea Grosvenor, was present to assist with the PHF award presentation.
