Summary

Zambian Model United Nations at Martin House College convenes high school delegates in Lusaka for a short conference hosted in Zambia's capital. The programme is positioned for secondary-level participants and runs in a compact format anchored to a single host school. For circuit-watchers, ZAMUN-MHC is one of the entry points into the Zambian high school Model UN scene, accessible through the mainstream conference listing platforms used by international delegates and travelling teams.

Why this edition matters in 2026

Lusaka-hosted conferences expand the working geography of African Model UN. A high school event run on Zambian soil gives local delegates a structured environment to practise rules of procedure, caucus discipline, and resolution drafting in their own city, without depending on the larger regional hubs further south or north. For visiting delegations, the conference is also a useful read on how southern African chambers handle agenda-setting. The committee culture in Lusaka tends to take the development, public health, and regional security files seriously, and a high school weekend conference is where future chairs and secretariat members get their first reps. And for the wider circuit, every additional well-run conference in the region shortens the distance between Model UN as an activity and Model UN as a pipeline. Martin House College hosting under the ZAMUN banner reinforces that the Zambian scene is organising itself with continuity in mind.

How to prepare

Treat this as a high school conference first and a regional conference second. That means prioritising fluency in basic procedure - motions, speakers' lists, working paper mechanics - over exotic crisis manoeuvres. Chairs at school-hosted weekends reward delegates who keep debate moving and who can write a clean operative clause under time pressure. On substance, lean into the dossiers where the host region has genuine expertise and stake: African Union coordination with the UN system, public health financing, climate adaptation in southern Africa, and peace and security questions on the continent. Read the African Union's recent communiques alongside your assigned country's foreign ministry statements - the delta between the two is usually where good policy positions live. Logistically, delegates travelling into Lusaka should plan around a compact schedule. With a short conference window, there is little slack for late arrivals or unprepared position papers. Submit early, arrive rested, and use the first session to map the room rather than to dominate it.
