Summary

Modelo de las Naciones Unidas de la Universidad del Rosario, known as MUNUR, is a high school Model UN conference hosted in Bogotá D.C., Colombia. The conference convenes secondary school delegates in the Colombian capital for several days of committee work under the banner of one of the country's universities. The edition is scheduled for the late-October to early-November window, placing it in the second half of the year on the Latin American circuit. Registration and committee information is handled through the conference's MyMUN listing.

Why this edition matters in 2026

For high school delegates in the Andean region, MUNUR offers a chance to debate in Spanish at a university-hosted conference without traveling outside Colombia. Bogotá's altitude, scale, and concentration of diplomatic missions make it a natural setting for simulating multilateral negotiation, and a conference at this level gives younger delegates exposure to the kind of formal procedure they will encounter if they continue on the circuit. The Latin American MUN ecosystem operates largely in Spanish, with English committees appearing selectively. For a high school delegate weighing where to invest a travel weekend, a Bogotá-based conference run by a university provides a different texture from the school-hosted conferences that dominate the regional calendar - typically more formal procedure, larger committee rooms, and chairs drawn from university-aged staff. The late-year placement also matters. Delegates who have spent earlier months of the year building skills at smaller conferences can use a Bogotá trip as a more demanding test before the calendar resets.

How to prepare

Preparation for a Spanish-language conference in Bogotá should start with the working language itself. Delegates who default to English procedural vocabulary need to drill the Spanish equivalents - moción, punto de orden, lista de oradores - until they can use them without hesitation. Chairs at Colombian conferences tend to be strict on procedural Spanish, and fumbling the vocabulary costs floor time. On substance, high school delegates should resist the temptation to write position papers that simply restate the country's foreign ministry talking points. Stronger preparation means identifying two or three concrete policy instruments the assigned country has actually used - a vote in a specific UN body, a bilateral agreement, a domestic law with extraterritorial reach - and being ready to deploy them in caucus. Logistically, Bogotá sits at high altitude, and delegates flying in from coastal cities or from outside the country should plan for the first day to feel physically demanding. Hydration, sleep, and a light first dinner do more for committee performance than a final round of research. Finally, delegates should treat the conference as a writing exercise as much as a speaking one. Draft resolutions that survive merging are usually the ones whose operative clauses are specific enough to be costed and vague enough to attract co-sponsors - a balance worth practicing before arrival.
