About
Global UN
Global United Nations is an initiative to empower and ignite the young minds. “All of our hopes for a better world rest on young people,” Mr. Guterres said – “Sustainable development, human rights, and peace and security can only be achieved if we empower these young people as leaders and enable them to unleash their full potential.” We believe rightly so and our vision being completely in concordance of #Youth2030, the strategy has five priority areas: youth engagement, participation and advocacy; ensuring informed and healthy foundations through education and health care; economic empowerment through decent work; human rights; and peace and resilience building.
VISION
Our vision is to empower the young people as leaders while enabling them to unleash their full potential. We seek to explore innovative practices and models of development for educational institutions towards an increased impact in the local community.
What is MUN ?
Model United Nations also known as Model UN or MUN is an educational simulation and/or academic activity in which students can learn about diplomacy, international relations and the United Nations. MUN involves and teaches participants speaking, debating, and writing skills, in addition to critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership abilities. Usually an extracurricular activity, it is meant to engage students and allow them to develop deeper understanding into current world issues.
Advantages ?
From an INSTITUTIONAL PERSPECTIVE, various studies and surveys have pointed to a direction that if there’s an annual Model UN conference conducted in your institution then –
– Studies have suggested that students participating in MUN have shown rise in their academic grades
– Well, if you have a decent infrastructure, why not flaunt it off? Essentially, if you conduct Model UN conference in your institution, then there’s a high chance, there will be an acceptance of delegates from other schools as well. This could play a major role to get admissions of students who are in mind of switching the schools.
From Students Perspective –
1. Oratory Skills- Public speaking has two kinds of followers, the ones who are highly confident, or the ones who are terrified. If you are the former, MUN is an opportunity to flaunt and improve them. But if you are one of latter, MUN is the platform which will help you erase this fear. Imbibe qualities of expression and articulation with MUN.
2. Global outlook- The debating environment is hard to find in our regular surroundings. MUN conferences give you an ambience with politically driven minds all having different opinions. Discussing about agendas of national and global importance gives you unforeseen insights which wouldn’t have crossed your mind otherwise.
3. Social Skills- Meeting and interacting with new people from different places enhances socializing abilities. You learn to dwell in various environments and adapt to different mindsets. MUN helps you develop social skills that are needed in our day-to-day lives. Your fellow delegates will open your eyes to a new dimension of the world.
4. Self-awareness- While debating with people well versed with facts and figures of any agenda, you gain a lot of information. Corrections and additions to our own knowledge are a must. And there is no better way than MUN to improve it. You would certainly feel much enlightened about issues which you had no idea about, all in a better light.
5. Diplomacy and leadership- Development of personal attributes is a key focus at all MUN conferences. Diplomatic tactics and leadership skills are nurtured. Here you learn to dive deeper into conversations and defend your line of thought, or correct it. You can only favor what’s in the rules, and this makes you maneuver the discussion in your favor.
6. Experience UN proceedings- United Nations Conference is an experience all aspiring leaders dream of. It is an assembly of the world’s most diplomatic intellectuals. MUN is a simulation of such an environment. Here the stimulus to become better future leaders and create a place for you in the world can be found.
