About ALMUN (Arab League Model United Nations)

ALMUN is a live simulation of the workings and deliberations of the United Nations and the Arab League. The Faculty of Economics and Political Science (Cairo University) hosts it. ALMUN raises students' awareness of current global and Middle Eastern issues. Each year, we recruit hundreds of Egyptian, as well as foreign, students to take part in our activities, sessions and the annual conference. A sizable portion of those recruited peruse a diplomatic career. A trained team of moderators and organizers guide recruits to take an active role as participants through 9 training sessions where they acquire all the skills they'll need in order for them to be well prepared to participate effectively during the conference. Many of those skills are transferable to other career areas, such as presentation, negotiation, time management, and communication skills. Negotiations during the 4 days of the conference follow the same diplomatic procedures and protocols of typical United Nations and Arab League conferences, with each participant trying to best represent the interests of his/her nation. • Sessions venue: Faculty of Economics and Political Science, Cairo University. • Number of sessions: 9 sessions from November of each year to March. • Conference venue: Conference center of Cairo University. • Conference date: April. • Conference duration: 4 days. Junior ALMUN: Another annual conference is held for preparatory and secondary students from more than 12 schools across Cairo, Giza and 6th of October to raise the political, social, and cultural awareness of younger youth, believing they are the future we're holding up to.
