What are the aims of MUNA?

MUNA stands for Model United Nations Assembly, which simulates the workings of the U.N. Assembly by having teams of two or three senior students represent a particular U.N. country in debates on matters of world political and social concern.

It can be held over a week-end from Friday evening to Sunday lunchtime, or on one or two days only depending on the wishes of the host Rotary Club.

The main aims are to develop in students an awareness of the United Nations and the international situation of other countries in the world;

 
 
to enable students to improve their public speaking and debating skills.
to encourage them to make sympathetic and informed comments on world problems.
share their opinions and friendship with students from other schools and
to lay the foundation for the free sharing of ideas across national boundaries which is the essence of a truly open society tolerant to differences of race, religion, and political opinion.
