ISN MUN

What is ISN MUN?
Model United Nations (MUN) is a longstanding tradition at the International School of Nice (ISN), with our high school students actively participating for over 20 years. MUN is an academic simulation of the United Nations, designed to educate participants about current events, international relations, diplomacy, and the UN agenda.  

At ISN, MUN serves as an invaluable exercise for students to develop and refine key skills, including public speaking, group communication, event organization, negotiation, conflict resolution, note-taking, writing, and editing. Participating in MUN also provides students with a competitive edge when applying to universities, demonstrating a commitment to extracurricular involvement and an appreciation for diversity, tolerance, and differing perspectives.  

ISN MUN 2025  
This year, ISN MUN will be held as an in-house event, exclusively open to students in Grades 8, 9, and 11. The conference provides a unique opportunity for ISN students to engage in meaningful discussions and collaborative problem-solving in a supportive and familiar environment.
