Anastasiia Litovchenko

Tech Lover

Hello! I am Anastasiia Litovchenko. I am 14 years old and I was born in Ukraine. Ever since I was a child I was always interested in public speaking so this is one of the main reasons I joined this event. Some interesting things about me are; I speak English and Russian and I am in the process of learning Spanish and Chinese. I also take various debate classes and participate in a lot of law courses. In my free time, I love reading and drawing. In my speech, I mainly focus on technology development in the world. The main two topics I discuss are communication and how I think the Russian and Ukraine war affect technology development. I am very excited to participate in this event and I am very much looking forward to presenting my speech.

Seungyeon Jee

Water conservationist

I'm going to give a speech to make people value saving water. Starting by explaining the definition of the era of water savings, the speech will deliver to prevent people from extravagant use of water by examining the conditions of water (the proportion of edible water in water) and the casualties caused by water shortages by 2027. Then will explore the causes of the global water shortage and explain solutions promoted by the UN, such as the ongoing campaigns and World Water Day.
