Model United Nations (MUN) is a popular extracurricular activity as it provides pupils with a unique opportunity to develop their leadership, public speaking, and critical thinking skills. Its popularity stems from the authentic experience that is offered to its members. The MUN is a simulation of the United Nations where pupils take on the roles of delegates representing different countries and engage in debates on global issues.
They attend conferences with pupils from other schools from different countries of the world. During the conferences, pupils research and prepare speeches on various topics related to international affairs, diplomacy, and current events. They engage in formal debates, negotiations, and voting procedures, with the aim of reaching a consensus on issues that affect the global community.
It is a transformative experience for pupils as it exposes them to diverse perspectives and encourages them to think critically about complex issues. It also fosters a sense of community and global citizenship among the participants, who learn to work together towards a common goal.
