EVENT

DGPSMUN 2020 – INSPIRING PARLIAMENTARIANS OF TOMORROW

Dubai Gem Private School hosted its second three-day
internal Model United Nations-MUN conference in January.
As many as 137 delegates across Years 7-12 participated
in the event. Delegates were grouped into various wings
such as the Second General Assembly, the Sixth General
Assembly, the Human Rights Council, the Commission on
Science and Technology, the United Nations Development
Program, and the Security Council.
For three days, the students debated and created resolutions
for the implementation of Artificial Intelligence, the misuse of
diplomatic immunity, and concocting innovative policies to
resolve leading world issues.

A Social Night, the first of its kind debuting our very own DJ,
was also organised much to the delight of the delegates. It
was an opportunity for delegates to enjoy themselves after
days of intense debates. The event also featured a plenary
of the General Assemblies, as well as a crisis that had delegates from the HRC, CSTD and UNDP on their toes!
