The Montreal United Nations Conference (MUNC) is an annual Model United Nations simulation organized by Dawson College in Montreal, Canada.[1] First established in 2013, the next session of MUNC will be taking place from November 24–26, 2017. The conference welcomes 500+ student participants from across Canada and throughout the globe. Each year, MUNC simulates several organs of the United Nations such as the United Nations General Assembly, the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, the United Nations Security Council and the International Court of Justice.
These committees are divided in two groups. The first is the Blue Division and is for secondary school and CEGEP students. The second is the Orange Division and composed of CEGEP and university students. In 2015, MUNC introduced the International Press Forum (IPF) open to delegates from all three levels of education. The IPF plays the role of the media and has delegates representing news broadcasters covering the conference activities and what is debated in each committee.
Dawson College additionally organizes Dawson College Model United Nations (DCMUN) and is the host of Harvard World Model United Nations 2017 (WorldMUN).[2][3]
