Model United Nations at Rivers
 
What is an MUN?
Model United Nations (MUN) gives students the chance to step into the shoes of world leaders. During an MUN we reenact the real United Nations: with a Secretary-General, different committees, country delegations, the General Assembly, and the Security Council. In this setting, students practise public speaking, formal debate, resolution writing, negotiation, and teamwork — all while tackling real global issues. Along the way you sharpen your research, critical thinking, and intercultural awareness. These are core IB skills and powerful tools for university and beyond.
The Rivers MUN Team
Although we are a small school and do not host our own MUN, each year we take part in several conferences — usually two in the Netherlands and two abroad.
For 2025–26, we aim to include the following MUNs:
  • London (MYP4 and up)
  • Ljubljana (DP only)
  • Stuttgart (possible collaboration with Lorentz students and MUN directors)
  • Two Dutch conferences (LMUNA, Arnhem and SKYMUN, Nijmegen)
  • MarchMUN, a biannual event with the entire school
LMUNA, hosted at our partner school Lorentz, is a beginners’ MUN — the perfect place to start your MUN journey.
Our MUN team meets regularly on Wednesdays during 2nd break, where we discuss upcoming conferences and prepare together. Joining an MUN is not obligatory — but it is fun, inspiring, and a place of real-life learning.
Students are also welcome to join other MUNs on their own initiative. In those cases, the school will not be present and cannot take responsibility — but we encourage independence and self-management.
Please note: costs for MUNs (MarchMUN excluded) are not included in the schoolfees - they will be billed seperately for each MUN. They cover costs, including MUN fees, staying and transportation. It also includes a contribution to cover the costs of our MUN directors during the conference.
