Secondary and sixth form.
A Model United Nations (UN) Assembly is a simulation or role play of the United Nations. Participants take on the role of delegates from countries who are members of the United Nations and debate serious global issues such as climate change, child soldiers or the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
Model UN Assemblies enable participants to experience, practice and experiment with technical writing, debating, public speaking, listening, strategic thinking, conflict resolution, negotiation and decision making.
Several successful Model United Nations Assemblies have now taken place in the South West, with annual Assemblies now taking place in Torbay and Plymouth involving sixth formers. The programme is currently expanding to other parts of the South West, with planned MUN Assemblies at Devon County Hall and North Devon during 2011. MUNSW is also seeking to introduce MUN Assemblies in Cornwall and other parts of the South West. MUNSW has a dedicated interative Moodle website which students use when preparing to take part in a MUN Assembly: www.munsw.org.uk
