The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of International Organization Affairs is pleased to announce the release of its Model United Nations landing page. On the landing page, visitors will find two short Model UN simulations, a link to our Model UN mobile app, and a number of other resources to develop successful youth activities. Model UN helps youth around the world understand the collaborative process of the UN as well as gain the confidence and tools that very well may lead them to be leaders in their own countries.

Launched by the Bureau of International Organization Affairs in partnership with the United Nations Association of the USA, the themes of the Model UN simulation are Climate Change and Economics of Globalization. The simulations offer valuable and uncomplicated tools for students and teachers to explore real world issues in a fun environment and in a variety of languages.

As a supplement to the Model UN exercise, students and educators can also download the recently launched Model United Nations app, which educates users through lesson plans on topics like climate change, poverty eradication, and globalization, to engage youth in the important work of multilateral organizations.
