Model United Nations (MUN) is a global educational simulation where students represent various countries and discuss pressing international issues. It enhances critical thinking, public speaking, and diplomacy skills, significantly boosting students’ portfolios and preparing them for leadership roles. MUN conferences, held worldwide, provide a platform for students to engage in diplomatic discussions, develop leadership and negotiation abilities, and gain a deeper understanding of global issues.
