Vaishnavi attends prestigious Model United Nations conference
From Thursday 1 June to Sunday 4 June 2023 I had the privilege of participating in the Harvard Model United Nations. Harvard Model United Nations (HMUN) is one of the largest and most prestigious Model United Nations conferences in the world. Representing Haiti in the Legal Committee, I actively engaged with fellow delegations to address the pressing issue of enhancing education accessibility, aligning with the principles outlined in Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
HMUN provided me with an enriching experience in international relations and diplomacy and shared insight into what my future pursuits will look like. Throughout the four-day event, I acquired invaluable knowledge in policymaking and negotiation, while honing my collaboration and communication skills.
Moreover, the cultural exchange and networking opportunities at HMUN were exceptional. Interacting with students from various countries around the Asia Pacific region, sharing perspectives, and forging connections broadened my horizons and fostered a sense of global camaraderie. It was truly a memorable experience.
