PalMUN

PalMUN is a student-led initiative of Ramallah Friends School. It began in 2006, when our student council discovered Model United Nations and set out to learn, teach, and organize it themselves, culminating in the first Palestinian MUN conference in 2011. That success led to a standing student MUN board and to our delegates’ participation in international conferences.

Convinced that the experience was worth sharing, our students, encouraged by the school, made PalMUN an annual event at RFS, the first MUN conference to bring together students from across Palestine. Ramallah Friends School oversees all aspects of PalMUN, and with the continued support of our community, our students keep working toward a better world.

PalMUN is the biggest Model UN event in Palestine. The conference is a student-run program, a proud achievement of the RFS community. The PalMUN board with the assistance of both its advisor and administration and the support of the community help establish a successful event. Every leader of tomorrow kick starts their diplomatic careers with speeches, debates and resolution writing to establish their position in the diplomatic world. Delegates take on foreign policies of different countries, enhancing their knowledge and political awareness. Delegates debate global issues, that even the world’s greatest leaders debate in our current times.

For years PalMUN was the stage that allowed students to express themselves, allowing students to expand their horizon upon political and social issues. PalMUN carries the mission to teach and enhance the spirit of diplomacy within the veins of its participants. 

Each year, the school sends a select group of its strongest delegates to international conferences, where they represent Palestine and make our school and country proud. From the United States to the United Arab Emirates, Greece, the Netherlands, Turkey, Jordan, India, Switzerland, Portugal, Hungary, Egypt, and Qatar, our students have not only traveled far but have exceeded our expectations, earning “Best Delegate” titles and many honorable mentions.
