Centre Point School, Wardhaman Nagar, held the 8th edition of its signature event, CENMUN 2025 (Centre Point Model United Nations). This event is indicative of the school’s mission to create global-minded young leaders. The theme for this year revolved around diplomacy, international problems, and collective problem-solving.
Organized in the opening week of August 2025, the conference hosted 1,063 students from 38 schools in the Vidarbha region. This made it Central India’s biggest MUN (Model United Nations) conference. Having more than 1,000 fresh minds at the conference provided a dynamic platform for discussion, debate, and negotiation on global issues facing the world.
One highlight of this year’s CENMUN was the innovative “Shadow Council of Influence.” This futuristic simulation was borrowed from actual concepts of shadow government and clandestine influence in international politics. The council simulated a hypothetical geopolitical situation where a cold war evolved into a ‘Shadow War’ by 2055, with stimulating debates on diplomacy, power, and strategy.
Chief Guest Mr. Prajodh Rajan, CEO, Lighthouse Learning Pvt Ltd, was virtually present and he spoke to the Executive Board, delegates, and organizing committee. This was an indication towards the increasing awareness of Centre Point School’s contribution towards developing not just academic high-flyers, but all-rounded socially conscious individuals. He expressed great appreciation for CENMUN’s aims and achievements.
Completely student-run, the conference saw senior secondary students manning all functions. They planned committee composition and agendas, organized logistics, and finances. For participants and organizers alike, CENMUN ensured honing their abilities in leadership, critical thinking, public speaking, and diplomacy fostering empathy and understanding of cultures.
“CENMUN is close to my heart particularly for two reasons” stated Ms. Kanchan Ukey, Principal of Centre Point School Wardhaman Nagar. “First and foremost, the excellent quality of debating issues selected each year, giving learners ample scope to research and analyze global issues and engage in informed discussions. Second, the fact that it is organised entirely by senior secondary learners and helps build so many important life skills in them.”
CENMUN’s influence went beyond the campus, motivating other schools in the city to initiate their own MUN conferences and inviting Centre Point School students to chair committees as Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons.
