Frequently Asked questions
What is Model United Nations?
Model United Nations is a academic simulation of the United Nations. In MUN students are assigned to represent a country, where they debate pressing global issues. There are many different topics students can debate which include global health, environment, security, finance, economies, human rights, and development. Not only are students able to debate, they are also taught to the importance of negotiations and listening to others as they work with other nations in hopes of producing a comprehensive resolution to address the topic of debate. MUN is also an enriching experience as it encourages students to investigate and be considerate of perspectives other than their own.
