This is a platform where students from across the nation and the world can hone and test their skills of diplomacy, problem-solving, debating public speaking, writing and team building as well as gain the ability to scrutinize and analyse seemingly complex concepts to acknowledge and understand the multifaceted nature of problems, and most importantly, to actively listen to friends and foes alike. IR MUN 2021 aims at nurturing young minds to pursue diplomacy over war and conflict and to enable them to create a prosperous future. It is the need of the hour to solve issues around the world through the art of diplomacy, to enhance peaceful coexistence and to integrate nations for a better tomorrow.

The IRMUN focuses on five such relevant and important committees of Model United Nations which include: The UN General Assembly - Disarmament and International Security (DISEC) The General Assembly is the main deliberative, policymaking and representative organ of the UN. Comprising all 193 Members of the United Nations, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter.

Its powers, outlined in the United Nations Charter, include the establishment of peacekeeping operations, the establishment of international sanctions, and the authorization of military action. Continuous Crisis Committee (CCC) One of the most thrilling committees of a Model United Nations conference is the Continuous Crisis Committee leaves all delegates with an adrenaline rush. The most integral part of this committee is to test the ability of the delegate to defend the policy and stands of their country in that particular crisis. The committee expects the delegate to constantly update themselves with the changing conditions and updated crisis. The use of directives makes the committee even more unpredictable and expects the delegate to respond by protecting their sovereignty. United Nation Refugee Agency (UNHCR) The UNHCR is one of the most challenging committees in the Model United Nations, were agendas are shaped surrounding the major issues of displacement. The delegates engage themselves in dealing with refugee crisis across the world, with an acute interest in protecting their national interest and at the same time taking necessary actions of humanitarian intervention.
