What is TriMUN?

The name TriMUN is short for Trier Model United Nations. By now, TriMUN looks back upon a proud history: Since 2002, students from the University of Trier and the University of Luxembourg take part in the interdisciplinary English-language project along with International Students from all over the world. The participants simulate the inner workings of the United Nations and learn about the behavior and methods of argumentation of diplomats on the international stage.

At the end of the program, the delegation from Trier participates in the National Model United Nations conference, called NMUN. It is the biggest Simulation of the United Nations worldwide, with over 5000 students attending. The event is held annually in New York City. There, the delegations represent a country which was previously assigned to them. For this, the participants need to immerse themselves in the objective situation of the country as well as the subjective interests and dynamics of political actors.

TriMUN is a project which conveys openness and a finesse for negotiation. Every country and region depends on such skillful young representatives, who TriMUN helps educate for the future.

Therefore, we are excited for your participation!
