For our conference, we had left no stone unturned in ensuring that our delegates received the best experience possible, encompassing both the development of key communication, research and diplomacy skills as well as providing an avenue for high school students to interact in a stimulating environment and come up with real time solutions to conflicts affecting the international community.

Our Opening Ceremony was honoured with the presence of Chief Guest, Mr. Andrew Homden, CEO of Consilium Education Ltd. and Educational Advisor of DPS STS School Dhaka and Special Guest, Mrs. Baby Rani Karmakar, Deputy Secretary United Nations 6 Economics Relations Divisions, Ministry Of Finance.

With more than 30 executive board members chairing a total of 13 simulations of United Nations Councils, our delegates spent hours on sessions that tackled worldwide issues, building solutions and awareness.

No other programme offers this opportunity like a MUN, to develop the kind of skillset and understanding of the world that they need to be to become active and contributing citizens."
