Mata Jai Kaur Public School achieved yet another milestone by organising its first Intra-School MUN on 4th May 2024. The momentous event began with the rendition of the pious shabad, followed by the welcome address of the Principal, Mr. Sandeep Singh Kathuria, motivating the participants to continuously strive for excellence. Further, the Head of the Social Science Department, Ms. Anju Budhiraja encouraged the enthusiastic participants to engage whole-heartedly in the most awaited event. The MUN was chaired by the Captain MUN, Norah Verma (XII-E) and the Vice- captain MUN, Sehaj Kaur (X-C).
The event saw a laudable participation of 59 students from classes IX-XII, who were enthralled to be a part of the extravagant platform for debating international issues, drafting resolutions to combat them. The event aimed to provide the future diplomats a conducive environment so as to hone their research, analytical and speaking skills, by being an active participant of the MUN committee, namely UNHRC. The delegates of different countries debated on the pressing issue of ‘Racism, racial discrimination and related inter-tolerance’ and chose the topic of ‘Challenges of achieving racial equality in education, employment and housing’ for the moderated caucus. After the customary roll call, the general assembly began with GSL speeches, followed by moderated caucus, unmoderated caucus and ended with passing of Draft Resolution. Delegates putting forth the stance of their nation were questioned by other delegates and Executive Board, rendering the event quite interactive.
