Rabindranath
World School, Gurgaon organised “RWS MUN-15” in the school on 05th
& 06th August, 2015. The session commenced by the lighting of
the lamp by the Director, Mrs. Manisha Tomar and the Principal, Dr. Kiran R
Banerji. The sessions held over the course of two days had delegates deliberate
on “Current situation in the Middle East” and “International Security Agencies”
and come up with effective resolutions in collaboration with fellow delegates
on these sensitive issues. The young students representing various countries
came up with very effective suggestions.
Ashley
Chaudhary and Sanchit Singh were assigned the responsibilities of the Secretary
General and the Secretary respectively.
The
sessions were an eye-opener to some intricate aspects of the world issues.
Delegates used all their diplomacy and ingenious methods of reasoning and
argument to defend their country’s policies. They asserted their country’s
stance on the floor.
Open forum
witnessed heated debates by the members on the topic “National Health Scheme
affordable for each citizen”. Members came well informed with points to state
why NHS in India has not been successful as compared to in the western world.
Many positive points were also highlighted. It was heartening to note the
solution suggested by young delegates.
The two days of MUN gave our
students an overview of the advantages of being an MUNite. They imbibed skills like
leadership qualities, Negotiating skills, Problem solving approach, Debating
skill and Presentation skills.
New
delegates developed a better sense of the debating processes and the skills
required to argue a case persuasively. Delegates of Australia, USA, Syria,
Japan and Russia came up as excellent speakers and debators during Caucuses and
open forum.
Apart from
serious moments, there were a lot of fun filled moments too. The two days of
rich experience culminated with the closing ceremony. The Principal appreciated
the efforts and active participation of the MUNites. She thanked the teachers
individually for their effort in training the students. The Chairman presented
the trophies to the best speakers and delegates and motivated them to pursue
their interests and hobbies with passion to succeed in life.
