The Global Citizens Model United Nations (GCMUN) is an intense 3-day conference held in New York City, usually at the end of February. GCMUN is a High School conference but has accepted in the past – with great success – also younger students (Grade 7-8). Participating students have had the opportunity to live, work and breathe in the same exact surroundings as their real counterparts – the ambassadors – each day do.  If compatible with the ordinary work of the United Nations, thanks  to the partnership  with  some permanent mission, delegates participating in GCMUN might have the opportunity of  spending  one  day  in  the United Nations Headquarters.*

Model United Nations around the world are well-known for their huge educational value, and GCMUN has been no different. You can expect your students to engage in highly stimulating debates on  world-class issues directly selected  from  the United Nations  Agenda.  GCMUN boosts  on the  perfection  of important skills  of  its young participants such as teamwork, necessary to carry a productive debate and experience at the conference and individuality  cherished  by  the  adoption of a Single Delegation methodology when assigning countries and committees.
