Summary

ClerMUN is a high-school Model UN simulation hosted in Clermont-Fd, France, drawing a compact cohort of delegates for several days of committee work in early November. The conference sits in the European circuit and is open to secondary-level participants exploring multilateral debate, resolution drafting, and the rhythms of UN-style negotiation.

Why this edition matters in 2026

For high-school students in France and neighboring European countries, ClerMUN offers a manageable entry point into Model UN that does not require navigating the scale or formality of larger flagship conferences. The intimate delegate count means more speaking time per participant, closer mentorship from chairs, and a steeper learning curve compressed into a focused early-November window. The conference also matters because regional MUN circuits in France remain comparatively under-mapped relative to those in the Benelux, Spain, or Central Europe. Each new high-school conference in a city like Clermont-Fd thickens the domestic pipeline, giving students a local proving ground before they apply to university-hosted simulations or travel abroad. For advisors and faculty, a small high-school conference in early November is well-timed: it falls after the school year has settled but before winter exams, making it a natural first competitive outing for new delegates recruited in September.

How to prepare

Preparation for ClerMUN should be calibrated to its high-school level and intimate scale. Delegates will not be lost in a sea of two hundred speakers; instead, chairs will likely notice who has done the position paper work and who has not. Reading the actual UN procedural guides - rather than only relying on a school MUN handbook - tends to separate strong delegates at conferences of this size. Because the conference runs across several days in early November, delegates have the summer and early autumn term to research their committee topics in depth. A realistic preparation arc involves drafting a position paper, rehearsing opening speeches aloud, and practicing the unglamorous mechanics of moderated and unmoderated caucusing with classmates before arrival. For faculty advisors building a delegation, ClerMUN's scale makes it a good environment to pair experienced students with first-timers in the same committee, so peer coaching can happen in real time. The compact format also means logistics - travel to Clermont-Fd, accommodation, and chaperoning - are simpler to coordinate than at large international conferences.
