This year, SISD didn’t just participate in history, we made it! Providing a home to the inaugural Yale Model United Nations – Dubai in January was an incredible feat, a testament to the hard work and dedication of our school community. But Model United Nations is more than just a prestigious event. It’s a beacon of hope in a world grappling with complex challenges.
MUN isn’t simply a three-day simulation; it’s a transformative experience. Here, students shed their everyday identities and become ambassadors, tackling real-world issues with the tools of diplomacy, negotiation, and cooperation. It’s a breeding ground for future leaders, fostering global awareness and the critical skills needed to navigate the complexities of international relations.
As the host of Yale MUN Dubai, SISD played a pivotal role in bringing together bright minds from around the United Arab Emirates. We witnessed passionate debate, thoughtful solutions, and the forging of friendships that transcended borders. This wasn’t just “play-pretend”; it was a glimpse into a future where dialogue and collaboration pave the way for a more peaceful world.
The Yale MUN Dubai experience will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact on our participants and school community. We learned valuable lessons about leadership, organisation, and the power of collective action. But most importantly, we were reminded that even students have the potential to be agents of change, working towards a world where peaceful resolutions prevail.
SISD is proudly part of the Nord Anglia Education family.
