450 delegates and 70 countries were represented; for three consecutive days debate, negotiation and juxtaposition were in order under the topic ‘Global integration or separatistic discrimination’; committees fired up when crises broke out and all delegates met the challenges they were faced with. All delegates debated passionately on international issues and combated fervently to resolve them exhibiting high academic caliber, quality of preparation and decorum.

The International Court of Justice simulation was excellently run by the renowned lawyer and simulator Mr. Robert Stern and deliberated on the issue Bolivia vs Chile regarding their access to the Pacific Ocean.
