Model United Nations...with a twist
Diplomacy and negotiation meet organised chaos
Fun MUN (Model United Nations) introduced young people into the world of multinational co-operation in a way that is accessible and entertaining. Due to the relaxed nature of the event, it’s a great introduction to Model UN procedure and the perfect way to get ready for Evatt season!
UN General Assembly
Simulating a session in the UN General Assembly, delegates (participants) represent a country to work towards achieving the goals of that nation.
Step into the shoes of the world’s leading diplomats and decision makers
Requiring no prior debating experience, Fun MUN immerses young people in years 9 to 12 to uncover the driving forces of influence that threaten to destabilise world order all while mastering the art of public speaking through negotiation. Going beyond ordinary debating, Fun MUN encourages delegates to practice skills like critical thinking, problem solving and diplomacy, all the while discussing issues that are relatable and topical for young people.
Understanding Resolutions
Each Fun MUN UN General Assembly resolution is split into two sections: the preambulatory clauses and the operative clauses.
Preambulatory Clauses
The preambulatory clauses explains circumstances and rationale as to why the Security Council is debating the particular clauses.
The preamble starts with a list of past resolutions on this topic. It can not be amended and helps set the stage for the call to action in the operative section of the resolution.
Operative Clauses
The operative clauses dictate the Security Council’s intended actions.
