Pakistani youth Shehram Wasi has reached a remarkable milestone by winning the highest award at the Harvard Model United Nations (HMUN) conference, recently held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

HMUN, the world’s largest MUN hosted by Harvard University, attracted nearly 1,000 delegates from over 35 countries. Shehram’s victory is particularly notable as he is one of the youngest delegates ever to earn this prestigious honour.
