Birkerød Gymnasium’s MUN (BIGMUN) society is proud to once again host an event which fosters lasting friendships, international awareness, and most importantly, the chance to tackle some of the greatest issues in the world today.

BIGMUN welcome you to the 10th annual session of the biggest MUN conference in Scandinavia, BIGMUN 2020. BIGMUN is a conference hosted by Birkerød Gymnasium. Situated in the beautiful Danish countryside and just 25 minutes from the center of Copenhagen, our school and our students are happy to welcome delegates and teachers from all over the world to BIGMUN. In 2019, we opened our doors to over 500 participants from all over the world, where the conference was a meeting point for hopeful, reflective, and engaged students.

BIGMUN 2020

This year, BIGMUN is focusing on climate and collaboration. This conference does not believe in notions of winning and losing, being the best competitor, or passing the most amendments. Instead, we open our doors to an environment that encourages joint efforts in pursuit of solutions to global issues and strive to mold our participants into open-minded, collaborative and resolute world citizens. With a particular focus on the ongoing ecological crisis, we believe that the mindset and work ethic promoted at this conference will inspire participants to produce effective and comprehensive solutions to this central contemporary issue.
