Model United Nations (also Model UN or MUN) is an academic simulation of the United Nations that aims to educate participants about current events, topics in international relations, diplomacy and the United Nations agenda.
The MUN-Morocco, the first Moroccan MUN, will represent a model through which childhood and Youth can speak out, participants from all over the world will gather to learn democratic notions, while defending multiple subjects, chosen with care, in order to focus on the child’s main problems. This model will be a way to offer a new experience to the young visitors, and also learn from them new perspectives and ideas that can develop and help the Moroccan child to prosper in its loving country.
OTHERTHINGS TO KNOW
The participants role-play as diplomats representing a country or NGO in a simulated session of a committee of the United Nations, such as the Security Council or the General Assembly. Participants research a country, take on roles as diplomats, investigate international issues, debate, deliberate, consult, and then develop solutions to world problems. More recently, simulation of other deliberative bodies, such as the United Nations Security Council, has been included in Model United Nations, even if they are completely unrelated to the UN or international affairs as a whole. In general, the participants that the executive panel considers to be most contributing are given awards, such as ‘Best Delegate award’.
