President’s Message
As the pioneer of Model UN in Pakistan, LUMUN has always upheld the responsibility of paving the way for the activity to be successful in the country. To that end, we have the most successful traveling team of any institution in Pakistan, having won Best Delegation 5 and 12 times at Harvard WorldMUN and MUNTR respectively, are affiliated with multiple international organizations including the UNODC and UNDP, and organize an incredibly impactful social responsibility program.
This year, with the onset of the global pandemic, we have decided to transition all activities, including our annual conference, to the online sphere. Our theme, Foster Resilience for a World Uncharted quite accurately captures our approach to the global situation, and is one of the main values we aim to instill in our team and our delegates.
