The Tokyo Trials

As conflicts rise and widen in our modern world, it is sometimes essential to travel back in time, to view the past and learn from it. World War II, one of the largest catastrophe of humankind history, was settled with Tokyo Trial, hosted by the International Military Tribunal. In this committee, we shall reexamine this piece of history. To what extent should individuals be punished? Who were being innocently used as a tool by the evil, and who were the manipulators behind all? Were the historical perspectives influencing how we perceive these individuals?

Ukon Yamauchi

Hello, my name is Ukon Yamauchi. I will be serving as a chair in the Tokyo trial committee during DAISMUN SPRING 2026. I have been attending MUN conferences for 2 years, and this will be my second time serving as a chair at the conference. I believe that MUN is not just a speaking activity, but it allows students to expand their views towards current society and encourages students to become global citizens. The trial committee is all about reflecting history, which also means reconstructing the trial and examining the details beyond the surface. I am excited to see all delegates in DAISMUN 2026.

Hi! I’m YusenZhang, your chair for DAISMUN XVI Trial committee, I have been in this committee since the start of my MUN journey, it was one of the toughest committee, but also the one that you could gain most experience from, it doesn’t matter if you win or lose, taking away something from the two day journey will be something that you would be looking forward to stepping into this committee. I came to this committee as a beginner with no experience before, and each year this committee pushes me to improve a bit more in all aspect of my ability. I hope we can all progress through our trial. Good luck to all of the delegates, looking forward to see you all soon!
