What Makes Our MUN Conferences Unique

Best for Practice and Feedback: Best Delegate Virtual MUN Conferences are great for getting practice and feedback, particularly in preparation for in-person conferences or for students who want to go above and beyond what’s offered at their school or local conferences. Students get feedback from a top college Model UN leader hired by Best Delegate for their expertise and experience in bringing out the best in others.

Best for Connecting with the World: There’s no easier way to meet like-minded students from around the world than through a Best Delegate Virtual MUN conference! Virtual MUN conferences are more accessible in terms of date availability, debate topic variety, and cost and time for lodging and transportation. Students can sign up on their own even if their school is not attending.

Best for a Professional Experience: Best Delegate makes it easy to do Model UN. Advisors can trust a professional organization putting on a high quality conference and responding quickly to inquiries. Parents can easily register and pay through our system. And our world-class training and curriculum ensures students receive a consistently high-quality and educational MUN conference experience every time.

Why Participate in Virtual MUN Conferences

At Best Delegate, we believe the future of Model United Nations will comprise a mix of virtual MUN conferences and in-person MUN conferences. The combination of both formats will help students build the confidence and community they need to succeed.

We recommend MUN clubs build a schedule with a mix of both types of conferences, or to add more virtual MUN conferences to their schedule to create accessible opportunities for their students.

Our conferences are 100% virtual and low-cost so that MUN clubs can easily add it into next year's conference schedule. Use our conferences to help new students learn Model UN and help experienced students hone their Model UN skills. And for schools located in areas where attending in-person Model UN conferences is not feasible, then our virtual conferences provide a high quality and accessible Model UN experience.
