On Model United Nations.

Model United Nations is an extracurricular activity, in which students take on the role as diplomats of a country and simulate the discussions inside a particular body within the United Nations system.
Participants research a countries position regrading a specific issue of international relevance, debate and discuss possible solutions with other fellow delegates, and produce a final resolution document in UN-format.

Besides the knowledge that delegates gain though their research, participants are also able to develop their diplomacy and leadership skills though the many debates and negotiations the experience.
