HACAS
HCCRI is the flagship MUN conference hosted by the Humanities and Current Affairs
Society (HACAS). HACAS organises a range of exciting educational activities, aimed at increasing
members' knowledge and cultivating their passion in these subject areas. Activities include talks by
external speakers, dialogue sessions, quizzes, game shows, seminars with distinguished academics, as
well as external field trips like the Ground-Up Initiative. These activities are jointly planned and
organised by the four wings — History, Current Affairs, Model United Nations (MUN) and Geography.
In addition, members and interested students will also have the chance to participate in various
prestigious and intellectually stimulating competitions such as MUNs (e.g. Yale MUN Korea and
Singapore MUN), Chancellor's Challenge Shield (Current Affairs), International History Bee and Bowl,
International History Olympiad and The Young Mayor Competition (Geography).
Members will also have various leadership opportunities in our landmark events like One Day Without
Shoes (ODWS), a large-scale awareness raising event where students are allowed to walk barefoot
around campus.
