W h a t is Model
United Nations ?
International Model United Nations is an educational simulation in which students can learn about diplomacy,
international relations, and the United Nations. At an IMUN conference, students work as the representative of a country
and must solve a problem with other delegates from around the world. IMUN teaches participants skills like research,
public speaking, debating, and writing skills, in addition to critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership.

It is meant to engage students and allow them to develop deeper understanding into current world issues.

Delegates conduct research before conferences: they formulate position papers and create policy proposals that they
will debate with other delegates in their committee. At the end of a conference, delegates will vote on written policies,
called draft resolutions, with the goal of passing them with a majority vote. The best-performing delegates in each
committee are recognized with awards.
