The Model United
Nations is an important component of the South Asia Inter-School
Association (SAISA) and encourages students to be active participants
in the real world.
 Model United Nations, also known as Model UN or MUN, is an academic simulation of the United Nations that aims to educate participants about civics, current events, effective communication, globalization and multilateral diplomacy. In standard Model UN, students take on the roles of diplomats and participate in a simulated session of an authentic intergovernmental organization (IGO). Participants research a country, take on the roles played by diplomats, investigate international issues, engage in debate, deliberate, consult and develop positive solutions to world problems. During a conference, students must employ a variety of communication and critical thinking skills in order to represent the policies of their country. These skills include public speaking, positive and effective group communication, viable research, policy analysis, active listening, negotiating, conflict resolution, note taking and technical writing. The LAS MUN team attended the Acmun in November, 2010. We were well represented with approximately twenty students attending the three day conference. On the cultural evening LAS represented India, Canada and France. Our students worked hard to prepare themselves for the conference and they represented the school well during the second semester of the school year. We will be preparing for
another local MUN conference, this time at one of the Lahore
