A real academic workout.
BEIMUN is built for delegates who want more than a line on a CV. The procedural standard is high, the chairs are experienced, and the work starts before you walk through the door.
What do you actually learn at a Model UN conference?
Model UN is an academic simulation of the United Nations in which students research a real-world issue, represent an assigned country or role, and debate under formal parliamentary procedure to produce a resolution. At BEIMUN ’26 that means a genuine rulebook, chair-written background guides, and 2 full days to take a topic from opening speeches to a final vote — research, public speaking, negotiation, and writing, all in one weekend.
Real procedural rules
BEIMUN uses a real parliamentary rulebook, motions, yields, points of order, and formal moderated caucuses. You will leave knowing exactly how to run a debate, not just how to talk in one.
Background guides
Chair-written background guides for all 7 committees are published June 20. They cover the topic, key stakeholders, and the questions delegates will need to answer on the floor.
Resolution drafting
The end goal of every committee session is a working paper, then a resolution. You will draft operative clauses, negotiate preambulatory language, and defend your text on the floor under time pressure.
Two full days
2 full conference days means committees have time to actually go somewhere. No rushed one-day formats, delegates build arguments, shift positions, and see resolutions through from draft to vote.
"The procedural standard is high. That is the point."
