About

WFUNA International Model UN New York High School is organized by the World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA). WIMUN NY HS is the most accurate and realistic simulation of the United Nations and features the WIMUN approach, intensive training workshops taught by UN officials, briefings on important agenda items by UN Agencies, and sessions in the heart of New York City. More than 1,000 youth from around the globe will gather for a four-day program with educational and simulation components. This conference is for high school students only, and the participants will have the opportunity to engage in simulations of the the UN Security Council, the UN General Assembly, the UN Economic and Social Council, and others.

At WIMUN NY HS, we aim to foster global citizenship in our youth by educating them on current and relevant issues that the United Nations and international community is facing and to equip them with the skills to research, negotiate, and resolve those issues together. All topics discussed at WIMUN NY HS are current items being considered by the UN itself on its Agenda, and participants are taught to prepare with UN resources and documentation in online webinars prior to the conference. With students coming from over 70 different countries and Secretariat members from every inhabited continent, WIMUN NY HS is the most diverse conference in the world and reflects the wide, international membership of the United Nations.
