Over the past five decades, Model UN conferences have helped students develop public speaking, writing, and research skills. They often provide students with their first entry point into global literacy, international affairs, and concepts, including peace and security, human rights, development, and rule of law issues. By learning about the UN as an institution, its role in world affairs, and the diplomacy involved in UN decisions, students also learn the importance of seeing matters from another country’s perspective.
Join us in fostering global literacy and leadership skills among students by sponsoring the Winthrop University Model United Nations Program.
