MUN - Model United Nations
Model United Nations are international upper secondary school/college age conferences that seek through discussion, negotiation, and debate, solutions to world problems. The conferences replicate the United Nations itself, and as such students are assigned a country to which they must act as a delegate. MUN mirrors the United Nations by also having a Secretary General, Security Council, General Assemblies, and Member states.
Doha Academy has participated in five MUN conferences including THIMUN, Georgetown University and one of the largest international conferences, DIAMUN, in Dubai.
