Welcome to the home page of BUAMUN II! BUAMUN is a Model United Nations Conference for middle school-aged students (11-14) hoping to gain a wonderful experience and a unique insight into high school Model UN. The conference will take place from Saturday, February 1, 2014, to Sunday, February 2, 2014, at Boston University Academy on the Boston University campus.
Building on the success of our inaugural conference, BUAMUN II is focused on enhancing the experience of middle school delegates and helping them build their Model UN skills. The conference is staffed by members of BUA’s nationally ranked Model UN team, and will offer both General Assemblies (GAs) and Crisis Committees, including a Joint Crisis simulation. Throughout the weekend, delegates will debate, negotiate, and compromise in order to represent their positions as accurately as possible. Along the way, they will sharpen their skills and gain awareness of what it means to be a global citizen.
