UNASOMALIA in partnership with Russet Academy has successfully concluded a Model United Nations (MUN) simulation program tailored for the institution's young learners.

The initiative introduced students to foundational concepts of diplomacy and international relations through experiential learning. Participants represented various countries and organizations, delivering speeches and engaging in structured dialogue to develop skills in public speaking, negotiation, and critical thinking—competencies introduced at a developmentally optimal stage.

The program marked Russet Academy's first MUN experience for this age group. It culminated in a certificate ceremony, where students received official recognition from Russet Academy and UNASOMALIA for their participation.
