TAFMUN CONFERENCE 2024
TAFMUN Overview
When students begin to learn and concern themselves with the issues of the world, it is only then that can they be appropriately referred to as the leaders of tomorrow. Despite the prevalence of various sources of information in today’s world, our youths know very little about how they can effect the change that they also desire. We live in an ever changing world which will favour the person with diverse experiences and abilities. Thus, we should ensure that these young minds are given a competitive edge to face the world of the future. TAFMUN conference provides that competitive edge.

In the words of Aristotle, “What we need to learn to do, we learn by doing”.

It transforms delegates’ minds for enquiry and also prepares them for the jobs and workplaces of the future. Thus, the ultimate aim is to prepare the next generation to face future challenges / problems and issues when they arise.
