We invite you to participate in the annual conference "Model United Nations, MIS MUN 2023", organized by the International School "Miras" in Almaty, which will be held on February 23-24, 2023. We are glad to welcome teachers and students from all over the world. Participation in "MIS MUN 2023" is an opportunity for each student to demonstrate their diplomatic skills, leadership qualities, eloquence, language skills, as well as their ability to find compromises in solving the problems of the modern world. New participants will have the opportunity to get their first experience of participating in organized debates, and delegates will be able to improve their oratory skills in debates and public talks. Participation in the conference will be a great opportunity to meet new delegates and countries.

The theme of the conference is “Preventive Diplomacy and Global Citizenship”

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres stressed that peace and conflict prevention is one of the most important and priority issues on the United Nations agenda. The Security Council and the General Assembly UN assume the paramount importance of conflict prevention, as well as the importance of addressing root causes and taking action for post-conflict reconstruction and reconciliation of the parties. Preventive diplomacy is a special form of UN peacekeeping activity that is closely linked to actions such as promoting peace and keeping the peace when implementing measures to build mutual trust between countries.

"Model United Nations, MIS MUN", founded in 2004 at the international school "Miras", offers delegates a unique experience of working in the committees of the Model UN. Students interested in solving the global problems of our time can demonstrate their diplomatic skills and make decisions on which the future of the world community depends.
