The Real United Nations: In order to understand what Model United Nations is, one must understand what the REAL United Nations does. The United Nations is an inter-governmental organization established in 1945. Today, the UN works to promote peace between its 193 member-states, human rights and economic development.
Model UN here at West Potomac is a simulation of the United Nations. It is a club made up of students interested in learning about other countries and furthering their debate/public speaking skills. The Model UN team goes to various competitions "conferences" throughout the year, where students are able to act as delegates from a variety of countries. At conferences, students are able to collaborate and debate with other student representatives from High Schools throughout the world. They work together to write resolutions to the world's most pressing issues.
You are able to join MUN at any point throughout the year. We meet Wednesdays in room 424. Any interested student should e-mail our sponsor, Ms. Panjer, or our Secretariat.
