Model United Nations (MUN) is a simulation of the United Nations where students role-play as delegates representing different countries, engaging in debates and discussions on global issues.
Participants, acting as UN delegates, research and discuss a specific country's stance on given topics, aiming to collaboratively draft resolutions, negotiate, and address complex international problems. Read more about this conference's procedure over at the Rules page.
