Jindal Global University: Model United Nations Conference

O.P. Jindal Global University proudly announced the launch of the JGU-Model United Nations 2023 (JGU-MUN). The JGU-MUN seeks to hone the skills of all participating students in the art of understanding and articulating any global issue or problem by simulating debates being held on these at the UN and its various organs. Under the expert guidance of distinguished professors and former diplomats, students will have the opportunity to live a unique, international experience where they will practice collaborating with people from diverse backgrounds, championing different values, and perspectives, and sharpening their problem-solving skills.

Conferences will be held regionally in Delhi, Kolkata, Bengaluru and Mumbai in April and May 2023. This will be followed by a culmination event on the JGU campus, in the form of the JGU MUN Global Leaders' Summit 2023, an exclusive invite-only event for the Best Delegates of each region.
