What is Model UN? Model United Nations (Model UN or MUN) is more than just a student activity—it’s a global movement that turns classrooms into diplomatic arenas. It all began in the early 20th century as simulations of the League of Nations, and after the founding of the United Nations in 1945, it evolved into what we now call Model UN. The first official "Model United Nations" conference was held at Swarthmore College in 1947. At its core, Model UN is an educational simulation where students take on the roles of UN delegates. They represent countries or organizations, research global issues, debate policies, and work together to draft resolutions—just like real diplomats. It’s a crash course in international relations, public speaking, negotiation, and critical thinking. But what makes it truly compelling is the transformation it sparks. Students don’t just learn about the world—they learn how to shape it. Many alumni of MUN have gone on to careers in law, politics, international affairs, and activism. Whether you're a seasoned delegate or a curious newcomer, MUN is a powerful way to understand the complexities of global diplomacy—and to find your voice in the process. Want to include this in your judge invite or use it for something else?

Welcome to [Dialogues](https://schoolhouse.world/dialogues)! In this session, we will be discussing Affirmative Action and using this discussion guide: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/14st9nnjZuSQCXl96DE1-CJ-m4Q8svsnj/view?usp=drivesdk](https://schoolhouse.world/redirect?code=EmU2q60zUZLulpTytw_zB) Here’s some helpful information to help you prepare for your session: 📌 Session introduction: At the start of the session, the event host will provide some introductory remarks about how the session will work and tips for discussion. 🧩 Discussion partner matching: All participants will be matched with a conversation partner to discuss with. If there are uneven numbers, you may have two conversation partners. 🤝 Breakout discussions: After the session introduction, everyone will switch to their breakout discussion. Your discussion will be unmoderated, so you can start when your partner arrives in the new Zoom link. 🗺️ Discussion Guide: You will have a topic-specific discussion guide for the session to help guide conversation. ⏰ Session length: The breakout discussions are scheduled for 45 minutes but you can discuss as long as you want! ✅ Stay on topic: Please make sure to stay on topic. If you and your partner run out of things to discuss, it’s okay to end the discussion early. You will not be returning to the main group when your conversation is over. 🤔 Make the discussion your own: You probably won’t have time to answer all the guide questions so pick and choose! Feel free to also bring in your own questions and ideas outside of the guide. 📝 Survey: A mandatory survey will appear at the end of your session to fill out. This must be filled out for you to get credit for the session in your Dialogues portfolio. 🤸‍♂️ Have fun: There is no preparation needed for this event. These conversations are meant to be casual, in addition to being meaningful. We hope you enjoy it!

The History Subworld Moderators will host community events every couple of weeks through this series! Stay on the lookout every month for a new, exciting event!
