Rafael Radischat, an Intern at the Protocol and Liaison Service of the 缅北禁地Department for General Assembly and Conference Managament, who is half Portuguese half German and grew up in Austria, started his 缅北禁地experience in Vienna 4 years ago. He is very excited about this opportunity of working during the high-level segment of the General Assembly.

"It is a dream of mine to be doing this," he comments. "All world leaders coming together discussing our future, our youth's future, I think it is something very important," Rafael adds. For him, it is an opportunity to see how "world diplomacy unfolds from New York to the entire world."
