August 16 2024

The 16th day of August bore witness to the opening of the Shishukunj MUN 2024. Consisting of over 1300 delegates and spanning an impressive 22 committees ranging from Indian committees like Lok Sabha and AIPPM to committees like the Presidential cabinet of the United States of America to UN organs like UNICEF, this year’s MUN had it all. The opening ceremony of the MUN was just as grand as the MUN itself which was marked by the presence of Dr. Rajnish Jain who besides  being a reputed professor at DAVV was also the first Guardian of the Shishukunj family. 

The theme for this year’s MUN was “Together, Towards, Tomorrow” which  captures the essence of unity and collaboration as we collectively move forward to the future. For 3 full days the school was abuzz with debates, discussions, arguments,  and everything else related to international affairs, lobbying  and of course, public speaking ! Along with the brilliant debates and discussions that all delegates had in their respective committees, the Secretariat managed to get an enthusiastic response from all the delegates as they danced to the tunes of some of the most popular Bollywood songs. The Shishukunj band as well as the combination of Indian and Western dance performances brought life to the enrichment programme.

 As the MUN concluded on the eve of August 18th, and as the  Secretary General delivered their last address to the delegates, they reminded them of the countless memories and bonds they formed and left the delegates more encouraged than ever before to give their best in all future MUNs to come. 

Kudos to the Secretary General, the Secretariat as  well as the entire bureau for conducting such an enriching and exciting conference.
