Model United Nations
In Model UN simulations, students step into the shoes of ambassadors from UN member states
and representatives of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to debate current issues
on the organization's agenda. Students
- make speeches,
- prepare draft resolutions
- negotiate with allies and adversaries
- resolve conflicts
- navigate the conference rules of procedure
all in the interest of mobilizing "international cooperation" to resolve problems that affect countries all over the world!
