Προγράμματα - MEDIMUN

Model United Nations (MUN) is a simulation of the United Nations for students. Around the globe, a large number of similar conferences take place. During these conferences, students become delegates, representatives of a UN Member State that has been allocated to them. After extensive research into their allocated country, delegates discuss, write and debate resolutions (documents detailing their suggestions and solutions to world issues). Directors, usually teachers, are responsible for training and leading their delegation of students. They ensure that debates take place in a formal manner in accordance to the 'Parliamentary Procedure' of the UN.

M.U.N. conferences are greatly beneficial to all participants. Young people gain knowledge not only on individual countries but also on the working and running of the United Nations. They role play international politics and gain in depth understanding of the difficulties, limitations and essentially, the opportunities involved. M.U.N. programs encourage tolerance and diversity. Last but not least, students develop important skills such as teamwork and public speaking.
