What is MUN?
Model United Nations is a student-run simulation of the United Nations, where students assume the roles of foreign diplomats to learn about international politics and diplomacy. Participants are high school students. Participants are required to research the country they will represent at the conference along with specific topics related to the student's committee at the conference.
