This weekend I participated at the most interesting thing ever - Model of the United Nations. This is some sort of a UN simulation with committees, rules of procedure, votes, resolutions and passing of resolution. I was in the SOCHUM committee and we had to figure out a way to solve the problems refugees and internal displaced people have in Africa. We were only 14 girls and most of us had no experience in MUN but we were proud to obtain votes from all the other committee representatives, as our resolution passed with the most votes in the plenary session. I also received a Honorable Delegate Mention as I bravely represented the Republic of Cyprus within my committee.
It was great and though I thought it was going to be boring I had so much to learn and the feeling you have once you start debating id unique. You really feel like a major part in the world policy and considering our subject you got he feeling that you are saving life and the urge to do that pushed us during debates.
I hope I'm going to get the opportunity to participate in real debates like and really get the change to change he situation people have through my decisions.
