MODEL UNITED NATIONS

We have organized a strong academic programme, which involves both theoretical and practical moments, such as an International Conference with a recognized panel of lecturers and three Debate Committees, each focusing on a different theme.
​
The Model United Nations is an international conference that simulates the debates that take place in the various committees that compose the United Nations.
​
Within each committee (such as Human Rights, Political and the Eco-Social), delegates act as representatives of a nation and have the task of debating issues of global relevance - all whilst having in mind the ideals of the nation they have been assigned.
​
A MUN is a great opportunity to learn about diplomacy and international relations in a social and inviting context where delegates have the chance of working alongside and getting to know other students from all over the world.
​
It is a renowned conference that happens in Oxford, Harvard and many other world class universities - as a result, you will get a certificate that will surely be appreciated by employers in you CV.
