World Parliament

A unique peace and unity education exercise at CMS comprises
of World Parliament sessions wherein children roleplay as
leaders of various countries of the world. They deliberate in a
mock World Parliament and discuss issues like the growing
arms threat, the increasing ecological imbalance, increasing

central theme of all discussions focuses on how to ensure unity
