The National High School Model United Nations (NHSMUN) is the world’s largest Model UN conference for secondary school students. Additionally, with hundreds of schools and thousands of delegates attending from around the world. Establish in 1975, NHSMUN is diverse, prestigious attendees. Its world-class staff, and its engaging committee simulations of proven substantive quality. National High School Model United Nations provides students with opportunities to interact with high-profile, relevant United Nations figures, including an in-person visit with diplomatic representatives of the countries the students are representing. Academically rigorous material, thought-provoking debate, and staff of carefully-selected MUN experts. Moreover, whether you are a beginner or veteran if you are looking for an engaging, immersive experience in the world of international affairs. Also, problem-solving, and diplomacy, NHSMUN is the conference for you. NHSMUN holds sessions at the New York Hilton Midtown and UN Headquarters, subject to availability of space at the UN.
While committee debate sessions are a crucial part of any Model UN conference. Further, there are countless opportunities for students to gain real-world experience beyond the standard practices of the committee room. NHSMUN provides students with the option of meeting with current United Nations representatives and their diplomatic team members. Further, by connecting student delegations and the Missions to the United Nations (embassies) of the country that the students have been assigned to represent. This experience is only possible in New York, where the Permanent Representatives and their Missions are located. NHSMUN’s administrative staff prepares months in advance to set up as many meetings as possible, based on each Permanent Mission’s scheduling availability.
Unsurprisingly, this opportunity for students to immerse themselves in the world of the United Nations. Also, gain exposure to the world’s leading actors. Especially, in the art of diplomacy is one of the most enthusiastically reviewed features of the NHSMUN conference. Many students, years later, have said that the visit to the Permanent Mission of their assigned country is the memory that most vividly stands out for them during their Model UN experience.
