Many students choose to study a degree or subjects in international relations because they’re fascinated by what makes the world work.
From diplomacy to the United Nations, there is so much to explore when it comes to global issues and events.
A Model United Nations – essentially, a simulated United Nations conference – provides an opportunity for students to apply what they’ve learned to a practical setting and represent a country, a global organisation or be a journalist during the conference.
Bond offers opportunities for students to participate in Model United Nations around the world, from Japan to New York, USA.
Here are some of their stories.
Sarah White, WIMUN 2018
