List of model United Nations conferences

Model United Nations (also Model UN or MUN) is a conference format that aims to simulate the procedures of the United Nations. Students participate as "Delegates" to various UN Committees and other bodies of the UN system. Participants research and formulate political positions based on the countries' actual positions.[1] Model United Nations was formed from the Model League of Nations.[2] As of 2012, there were an estimated 400 MUN conferences worldwide.[1]
