MCM College: Augusta Mateu Mendes (FLL) Represented Angola at Asia World Model United Nations VI, 2023 – “INNOVATING GLOBAL PEACE: INCLUSIVE COOPERATION FOR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH”
Asia World Model United Nations (AWMUN) is an international Model United Nations (MUN) symposium organized by International Global Network (IGN), an organization engaged in youth development programs. This year’s conference was held on 3rd November, 2023, in Bangkok, Thailand, and provided an insightful medium to comprehend the growing complexity of global issues.
MCM College was honored that Augusta Mateus Mendes, Year 2 Law student from Angola, was selected to represent her nation. This platform offered her a unique opportunity to not only interact with other student delegates through networking, but also through creativity and capacity, explore innovative ideas and life-changing possibilities with regard to child-stricken poverty in conflict zones – a theme chosen by UNICEF.
Through this valuable experience, Augusta was able to improve her soft skills: public speaking, develop critical thinking, learn diplomacy, and enhance leadership skills. This will serve Augusta well in her future professional life.
