For high-school and university students
Three days that actually change something
Model United Nations isn't a course, and it isn't a conference where you sit and listen. You represent a country, negotiate with the other delegates and write a resolution together. You speak, you disagree, you compromise, you vote — the way the UN actually works.
Public speaking
You open with a 60-second speech in front of the committee. By the end of day one you've spoken several times. Not theory about rhetoric — practice, with a real audience and real stakes.
Negotiation
During unmoderated caucus you get out of your seat and go find allies. This is where resolutions are actually won: by whoever persuades, not whoever talks loudest.
Argument
You argue a country's position, not your own opinion. It's the best thinking exercise there is — holding a view you don't share, coherently, and understanding why others do.
English under pressure
The whole conference runs in English. Not textbook exercises — interruptions, jokes, arguments, formal documents. Nothing moves your English faster.
Formal writing
A position paper before, a draft resolution during. Structure, clarity, argument — skills that show up afterwards in every essay you write.
People
90+ delegates at the first edition, 150 seats this year, from across Romania and abroad. You leave with a group of people preparing for the same things you are.
What it looks like
The three days, briefly
- Before
- You get your committee's study guide and the country you'll represent. One or two preparation sessions depending on your package, plus one-on-one coaching on Premium. You write your position paper.
- Day 1
- Opening ceremony, then the first committee session: roll call, opening speeches, first debate. In the evening you meet everyone else.
- Day 2
- The hard day. Debate, caucuses, blocs forming and breaking apart, the first draft resolutions. Premium delegates get Social Night.
- Day 3
- Amendments, final negotiation and the vote. Then the awards ceremony — Best Delegate, Outstanding Delegate, Honorable Mention, Best First-Time Delegate and others.
Beyond the three days
What stays with you
You get a certificate of participation, and if you win an award you can prove it. On a university application or a scholarship form, an international UN simulation says more than a list of courses — because it's an experience you have to be able to describe, not just tick.
But the honest part is different: most delegates come back because they enjoyed it, not for the CV. The first edition had 90+ delegates. The second has 150 seats.
First time?
You don't need experience
- UNICEF is the committee built for beginners — intuitive topics, classic procedure, a manageable pace.
- Every package includes at least one preparation session before the conference.
- You receive a study guide, a procedure guide and research recommendations.
- There's an award for exactly this: Best First-Time Delegate.
- The chairs are there to help. Everyone in that room had a first conference once.
