We welcome every friend and visitor to the homepage of the Nigeria Model United Nations Society (NigMUNS), with a deep sense of humility and pride – humility in the reflection of the goodwill our organization has received so far; pride in the excitement and fulfillment that our organization has brought to many Nigerian students.
We are convinced that there are no limits to what young people can achieve especially when they are equipped with the right tools, the right plan, the right support and the right attitude. Nigeria Model United Nations Society is cultivating a new generation of world leaders capable of communicating across borders and compelled to find solutions for the common good.
Through our conferences- NISSMUN for secondary schools and NIGIMUN for tertiary institutions, we have attracted some of the best talents from across the country. Participation as a Model United Nations Ambassador representing a member state of the United Nations is a matter of pride and achievement for the students and this stays with them for life.
The focus of our 2011 Conference series is: Fighting Corruption Together. Corruption has serious effects on the lives of the people and thrives when it is accepted, when victims do not protest, when it is not reported and when its consequences are not widely understood. Sadly, corruption has become a way of life in some societies and no longer carries the cancer of shame and opprobrium as in the past. When corruption takes hold, it affects every aspect of our human existence; the air we breathe, the water we drink and even the food we eat. It hinders development, slows all progress, and impedes all advancement within and outside our communities. Corruption affects all of us and it should be fought by all of us, young and old. If you desire to be the change you want to see in the world, please join us as we work together to fight corruption wherever it manifests itself. We all stand to benefit from a clean society, free of corruption.
