One of the most successful events at the Social Responsibility Day at LUMUN’09 was an Art Competition planned by the Social Responsibility Team. It was held in the afternoon of 1st January 2010 and we extended the celebration of this New Year by executing this interactive exercise between the delegates of LUMUN and children from two public schools administered by NGOs- Save Pakistan and Aabroo Foundation.
The ages of the children from these schools ranged between 6 and 12 and their enthusiasm to take part in this competition was remarkable.
The competition was themed “Our World Our Future” and delegates from the sixteen different committees at LUMUN had to interpret this theme. Each committee represented by three delegates had to make the children from different NGOs paint their interpretations of the theme on paper.The children and the delegates produced art work by painting the earth, children, trees and signs of peace with their hands. This competition also inculcated team spirit in the children as each committee chanted slogans to invoke other committees to do the same.
All in all the art competition was enjoyed equally by the children, delegates and the host team. Most importantly, the purpose of the competition to bring together children from different strata of the society and help them interact was served.
