What We Do


 

CCMUN takes part in two national conferences each year, one per semester. During the fall semester, we attend the American Model United Nations Conference in Chicago. AMUN is a larger conference, and it attracts students from all over the United States as well as international students. Also during the fall semester, CCMUN hosts a day-long conference for high school students at Carthage. Carthage MUN members organize and act as the chairs for the event. The high school conference has grown in size over the years, attracting schools from both Wisconsin and Illinois. In 2005, CCMUN hosted over 100 high school students.

CCMUN traditionally attends Midwest Model United Nation’s Conference in St. Louis during the spring semester. MMUN is a smaller conference with an often more relaxed atmosphere than AMUN. However, CCMUN has also attended the National Model United Nations in New York, and we are open to the possibility of attending other conferences. CCMUN also holds an on-campus fundraiser during the spring. With the fundraiser, we seek to raise campus awareness of current international situations. All the profits from this fundraiser are donated to a charity or NGO who does work internationally.
