The students engaged in debates and gained insights on “International Law and Global Security,” addressing topics such as dual-use trade, third-country sanctions, and compliance with international court rulings.
The event featured 24 teams and 72 participants from international universities, and ultimately the top eight teams competed at Rashtriya Raksha University in India. Among them, only two African universities participated, with Oda Bultum University as Ethiopia’s only representative in the top eight. This achievement underscores Oda Bultum University’s growing recognition in global academic competitions and emphasizes the event’s importance in fostering international partnership and idea exchange among diverse universities in the world.
