AUSTRIA - Vienna International Model United Nations

3-7 August 2014

Application deadline 30 June (31 May if you need visa)


Experience diplomacy at one of the most authentic United Nations simulation conferences with students from all over the world. The 20th anniversary VIMUN on the occasion of 35 years United Nations Office at Vienna.
A Model United Nations (MUN) is a meeting where students authentically simulate negotiations of specific committees and organs of the United Nations. Participants choose a country and research their chosen country's position regarding a specific topic. After preparation, they step into the shoes of diplomats and represent this country in a committee. They debate, convince, bring forward new solutions and solve a world conflict with their own resolution.
Why participate at MUNs?
Thousands of students actively take part in MUNs, debating either at training sessions at clubs or at international conferences that are organized all over the world.
The motivation for participation in MUNs is simple, yet very convincing:
  • improve your negotiation and public speaking skills
  • become a better team-worker and leader
  • get an insight into an UN diplomat's work
  • make practical use of your political knowledge
  • meet and stay in touch with students from all around the world
