The Arizona Model United Nations is a club devoted to the enrichment and understanding of the world and the many unique cultures that exist within it. Our direct reach is limited to the Southwestern United States; however, our club is merely one element in a global network of Model United Nations that extends into nearly every region on Earth. Together, we work for the same goal of peace and stability in the world.
Our club is involved in numerous activities throughout the year. In the fall we attend a conference in Chicago along with 2,000 other college students. While there we debate the most exigent issues of our time: nuclear proliferation, refugees, unilateral acts of states, national sovereignty, sustainable development, poverty and disease. The real allure of this club is that we debate these issues from a different perspective than our own. From Sudan to Pakistan to Chile, we have represented a variety of countries and cultures at MUN conferences. Whether you agree with their foreign policy and internal affairs is not relevant; the global awareness we seek comes only from unbiased studies and the true understanding of a culture.
