Model United Nations is a series of programs run throughout the world with the goals of furthering understanding about the United Nations, educating participants cooperation and diplomacy. The value of the Model United Nations for students is based on what benefits they can gain from participation. Many kinds of talents can be developed- including such skills as teamwork, persuasive writing, debating, public speaking, negotiation, and leadership abilities, which are important for personal development.
Each participant took on the role of a representative to the United Nations for a specific country and spoke as a diplomat of that country. Students surely benefited in developing various skills while practicing diplomacy, forming alliances and reaching a better understanding of leadership.
The purpose of the Model United Nations is to provide an interactive educational experience that teaches in an interesting and enjoyable way about the UN. In this interdependent world, Model UN makes for informed global citizens who not only understand the decisions their nations makes but also how these changes effect nationally, regionally and globally.
As the former Secretary General of the UN Ban Ki Moon said, “Global unity is something that just can’t be left for the United Nations. The UN needs support from everyone. Literally from governments, leaders, celebrities, NGOs and more importantly YOU! Support goes a long way and attempting to bring countries together in mutual agreement is difficult. This may be a Model UN but it helps us reflect on what the people represent, the issues that face us and the different ideas and views. It’s not all about passing resolutions but what this experience teaches us. In the future we should be able to reflect on this and know that together we can achieve peace, unity and sustainability”.
