Model United Nations is program that has been around for over fifty years in colleges and high schools around the world. The premise is this: Students assume the roles of ambassadors to the United Nations and are provided with an agenda comprised of items also being debated by the real United Nations in New York. Students, acting as delegates, research the issues from the agenda and study their assigned nation's point-of-view in order to accurately represent the country.
Upon arriving at a Model United Nations conference, delegates will meet in committee sessions to debate the issues from the agenda, draft resolutions, and ultimately arrive at the best solution the committee can devise. During a conference, delegates are challenged to persuade, influence, compromise, and ultimately make peace with friends and strangers while working within a structured process of debate.
Welcome to the Mid-American Model United Nations
The Mid-American Model United Nations (MAMUN) is a 4-day simulation of the United Nations. At this event delegates will have the opportunity to represent UN countries in the General Assembly, ECOSOC, Security Council or International Court of Justice. There is no experience more diverse or rich in the Midwest than MAMUN.
