ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Model United Nations (MUN) is one of the five cultural conventions hosted by the IASAS schools. The activity allows students to participate in a simulation of the UN and learning more about its guiding principles and goals. Students are assigned a delegation and then challenged to work diplomatically with other nations to solve a given problem. MUN is a catalyst for the public speaking, critical thinking, and leadership skills necessary to serve as an advocate in the international community.

MUN is a unique and even more diverse IASAS opportunity because the event invites international schools beyond the IASAS community. This year the event welcomes an additional 12 international schools located in countries India, Japan, Bangladesh, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.

PARTICIPATING SCHOOLS

The Interscholastic Association of Southeast Asian Schools (IASAS) is an organization comprised of six international schools in Southeast Asia: the International School Manila, International School Bangkok, International School of Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta Intercultural School, Singapore American School, and Taipei American School. IASAS events, including cultural conventions and sporting competitions, allow high school students a five day experience to connect with peers, explore a host country, and engage in an activity they love.
