ITANAGAR, Dec 19: Arunachal youth Alenso Chai was awarded the ‘Diplomacy Award’ for his presentation on the topic ‘Right and Protection of refugees feeling conflict of Brazil’, in the recently conducted annual conference of the North East India International Model United Nations (NEIMUN).

Held at Dimapur, Nagaland from December 15 to 18, the conference was organized under the theme ‘UNSCR 2250 : Youth, Peace and Security’, with delegates from the North East taking part in ‘General Assembly’ meetings in order to form model resolutions on various agendas, much like at the United Nations. 

This year’s agenda included ensuring access to clean water and sanitation, land rights of indigenous people, empowerment of rural women and rights and protections for refugees fleeing conflict. 

NEIMUN is a platform for the youth of the region to “bond beyond borders,” but also to enable the transition out of living in constant fear by developing holistic skills to bring the change young people dreamt of.
