In a world of strife and starvation, anger and intolerance are the enemies of understanding. Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible. What the United Nations does is to unburden global nations of this enmity, prejudices and hatred so that man is not condemned to make war and we may live in peace.
The objective of the Little Angels Model United Nations (LAMUN) is to seek through discussion, negotiation and debate, solutions to the innumerable global issues that plague all countries. Candidates (students) representing different member nations participate in open discussions; in the process developing insight into various international agendas and reasons for conflicts, their cause and effect and devise a viable vision to resolve them in an amicable manner, with tolerance and cooperation - the very quintessence of the Preamble to the Charter of the United Nations.
The second LAMUN was conducted at LAHS. On the opening day the issues contented were “The Role of ICT in Millenium Development Goals” and “Influence of Oil Super Majors on Global Economy”. The Security Council, however, discoursed on “The Korean Issue and its Impact on Peace in Asia” and “The Role of Science and Technology in International Security and Disarmament”.
“The UNO and all world citizens have the noble and unenviable role to play down formidable border disputes and disparities and award the world citizens true freedom……for what is liberty but the unhampered translation of will into act?"
We congratulate the future apostles of peace of LAMUN and bid the torchbearers the very best in their crusade against poverty, illiteracy, disease/starvation, global terrorism….and such pestilential maladies .
