We will hold similar conferences in different countries throughout South America.
This is also a great opportunity to contact international universities recruiters and explore the different options to study abroad and learn how to get a scholarship.

Dear delegates,
Welcome to International Universities MUN 2019!
My name is Valerie Delgado and I have the pleasure to be the Co-Secretary General with Alessia in this conference. I am 17 years old and I am currently a senior at Colegio Italiano Antonio Raimondi. My MUN experience started in November of 2016 with my school’s delegation, participating in Santa María Model UN. Until today, I have participated in a total of 22 conferences either as a delegate or as part of the staff team.
Getting involved in MUN has been, without a doubt, one of the best decisions I have taken. It has allowed me to understand new perspectives, meet people who I now consider my close friends and to develop my soft skills. I hope this experience is just as valuable for you and, taking this into consideration, you use your full potential. After all, we want you to have fun, to leave learning something new, making friends or even getting a prom date.
The International Universities team, Alessia, and I, during the last two months have dedicated most of our time to prepare the conference and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. In case you have any doubt, complaint, opinion, or if there is anything you want to tell us, Alessia and I are here for you.
See you in October!

Welcome everybody!
My name is Alessia Lara and I have the honor to be your Co-Secretary General alongside Valerie in this first edition of International Universities Model United Nations 2019. I currently am 16 years old and I am a senior student of Colegio Italiano Antonio Raimondi. It was thanks to the school’s delegation that I got involved in MUN. My first event was back in 2017 and, since that moment, I have not been able to stop going to more conferences as a delegate, chair and part of the Secretariat.
For me, IUMUN is still a dream. Sometimes I still ask Valerie if this is truly happening. We want every single one of you, delegates, to be able to enjoy both the conference and the amazing experience of being part of the MUN community. I would like to tell delegates who are participating for the first time in an event to never give up and, when the conference is over, to be able to look back and say that you were able to learn and grow from this new episode. I genuinely hope you get to enjoy MUN as much as we do.
We are extremely thankful for International Universities who, for the first time, are organizing an event and uniting schools from all around Lima in a great conference. Valerie and I will be at your disposition all weekend. If any of you have a doubt, suggestion, comment, or just want to say: “Hello!”, do not hesitate to approach us. We will gladly stop to talk to you guys. If you have any further inquiries, please contact us.
See you soon!
