Model United Nations

Confront the world's problems and make a case for a solution

The Institut Montana Model United Nations (IMZ MUN) club is popular. The aims of the MUN closely reflect the values of our school, on which it was founded and that guide us still today.

In the 1940s, the Montana International Relations Club was set up to help boost understanding between students from different cultural backgrounds in the spirit of the newly established United Nations. Since 2009, Institut Montana has been an active participant in the Model United Nations, where local and international schools come together and role-play as delegates to UN committees. We attend conferences around the world and host highly successful events of our own for participating schools.

Model United Nations

Develop wide-ranging skills for the future

As members of the Model United Nations, students participate in conferences that mirror the real United Nations, taking on roles of different countries debating the world's big issues. Not only do they learn about the politics, economics, ethics, social implications and morality of these issues, they learn a vast array of important 21st century skills. They research and write, they learn public speaking and debating, critical thinking and analysis, teamwork and leadership. They confront the world’s problems and research their deepest implications. Then, they stand up and make a case for a solution.
