Help Sciences Po Reims Represent France in DC

We are not law students. Yet, we have had the honor of being selected to represent France in the largest and most prestigious moot court competition in the world.

We are Mayya Chaykina, Katie Foppiano, Doriana Gheorghe, Bruno Fonseca, and Oleksandra Pashkina, a team of students from Sciences Po Reims. We are thrilled to represent France in the 2024 White & Case International Rounds of the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, taking place in Washington DC!

After months of preparation, our team–comprised of five second-year undergraduate students–defeated France’s best law schools during the national rounds. With the next phase of the competition swiftly approaching, beginning on the 30th of March, we can’t wait to make both Sciences Po and France proud.

We need your help to make it happen-specifically, support to cover our travel expenses, accommodations, and maybe a few emergency caffeine injections for those late-night sessions wrestling over erga omnes obligations.

Despite seeking aid from our school and other sponsors, our efforts have so far been unsuccessful. We turn to you for help to bridge the financial gap that stands between us and representing France on the world stage.

Every penny counts, and we cannot wait to share this journey with you.

We are beyond grateful for your continued support and thank all of our friends and mentors that have helped us on this adventure. See you in DC!
