I attended the Model WHO event organised in October, not knowing what to expect from such international conglomerations. From learning how to structure my speech and responses for the ongoing debates, attending this meeting helped me to write position papers and resolution papers. For those who want to improve their public speaking skills and sharpen their abilities to initiate international collaborations while debating, it is the best opportunity. I thank the Chair and all the organisers who put extra effort for creating an amazing opportunity that gave me an unforgettable experience.
Energy security and health is a challenging but pressing issue, that was selected as topic to introduce the audience to the model WHO concept. By representing either a country or a non-state actor, participants could experience first-hand the workflow of a typical WHO meeting. The process was very well organized and combined with selected presentations, to deepen the general understanding on the topic. It was a great experience to see how such global issues are discussed in the setting of a WHO meeting and how expert opinions and countries needs are considered to reach a common solution.
I have delegated in Model United Nations before and was very glad to come across and participate in a Model WHO for the first time. I gained a lot of insights into the theme ‘Energy Security and Health’ as well as the functioning of WHO. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole simulation working alongside other delegates and non-state actors from different walks of life to discuss, debate, and work on the position papers and the resolution. The expert talks added a lot to the knowledge I gained from the simulation, looking forward to the April 2023 event!
