Building the World of Tomorrow

It is our honour to invite you to the 42nd edition of the North American Model United Nations (NAMUN), held from February 18–20, 2027, at the historic University of Toronto.

Founded in 1985, NAMUN is Canada’s longest-running university-level Model United Nations conference, known for its commitment to excellence in diplomacy, debate, and innovation. Every year, NAMUN brings together hundreds of delegates from across the globe to participate in three days of immersive committee sessions, thought-provoking discussions, and unforgettable social events, all in the heart of downtown Toronto.

Our dedicated staff work year-round to curate an enriching conference experience, whether through carefully crafted committees, engaging crisis simulations, or community-building opportunities that go beyond the committee room. At NAMUN, we aim to foster not only skillful diplomacy but also lasting friendships and meaningful conversations.
