Proudly Introducing:

UNITED AMBASSADORS

The United Ambassadors MUN Conference (UA-MUNC) is a pioneering educational youth conference that offers the most accurate simulation of the United Nations and its decision-making process. It follows Real UN Rules of Procedure, which were developed by Stanford certified educators & Model UN veterans in consultation with UN experts and staff to deliver a world-leading realistic simulation of UN main bodies and events. Our committees include the General Assembly, Security Council, ECOSOC, International Court of Justice, Commission on the Status of Women, High-Level Political Forum, as well as real-life "MUN Action" committee discussing the role of youth in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals

 

UA-MUNC delivers unmatched quality, rich topics and fun, exciting debates in a fast-paced setting where students collaboratively negotiate solutions to some of the world's biggest problems with delegates from all over the world. The conference welcomes all active MUN participants aged 12-29, who must be currently enrolled in high school or university. The conference is designed for forward-thinking, innovative youth leaders, and is a valuable educational experience for students who wish to build critical skills for college or career, and learn first-hand how the real United Nations functions.
