MUN

HOW DOES HighSchool Model UN Work?

What do people do, what are the different groups, do all members in a conference participate?

Just an overview on how the club runs please…
I am interested but never had the guts to attend conferences and meetings.

MUN basically works like the UN on a smaller scale.

Schools get together and send a delegation of delegates for a number of countries they’ve been assigned, for each of the committees in the conference. They draft resolutions, get them approved, and then the whole delegation debates on the resolutions, amending clauses to try and get them passed. All members really should participate, but there are always a bunch of more active people who do things.

It’s REALLY chaotic if you’re active, and you end up sending a ton of notes everywhere. I recommend it as a pretty fun activity, if anything. And it looks nice on your application.
