Mission

The mission of the British School of Beijing Model United Nations (BRITMUN) is to

embed the principles of the creation of the United Nations (UN) after World War II

and prepare young minds with the international mindset who will become the world's

future leaders. We believe in maintaining international peace and security by

providing a platform for dialogue between nations and promoting international

cooperation. Our vision is to become a conference platform where students can learn

and develop the fundamental traits that the UN seeks to provide to international

relations.

I believe that Model United Nations (MUN) conferences are not just a mere

opportunity for growing your confidence in public speaking and learning about global

issues but are the most suitable platform for students to grow an international

mindset by stepping out of their original individuality that is bound by nationality.

To make the most out of MUN conferences, sufficient time should be allocated to

researching and understanding your country's position regarding the issue. No

matter how crucial you may think your country is about the topic, you should always

actively participate in crafting the best version of the resolution. MUN is not a place

of competition for awards. It is a conference where member nations gather and

collaborate to combat global crises, putting aside their conflicts with other nations

for once.

I hope BRITMUN will provide a wonderful conference experience for delegates where it inspires, encourages and motivates them to make a change
