The Central Coast Model United Nations Assembly (MUNA) has been cancelled.
Held in partnership with Central Coast Rotary Clubs, MUNA is held annually as part of Rotary’s ongoing commitment to youth development.
The event aims to nurture goodwill and boost young people’s understanding of global issues by holding debates modelled on the United Nations’ General Assembly and Security Council.
All Central Coast high schools were invited to take part in MUNA, with teams of students from each school assigned various UN member nations and tasked to learn about that country’s political climate, history, affairs and national interests.
They’re then challenged to make representations based on what they have learned during the debate.
It was to be held at The Hub, Erina Fair, on May 21, but has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Rotary Club of Gosford City is the auspice club for the Central Coast MUNA.
Club President, Francine Sultana: “Unfortunately, this year’s MUNA will not take place as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, however, we will be back in May, 2021, and we hope all local Rotary Clubs and high schools will continue to support this worthy activity”.
