The Aud Model United Nations (Audmun) – Preparing Students to Global Community Among the many clubs at AUD is the recently established AUD Model United Nations Organization (AUDMUN), committed to the pursuit of understanding of the United Nations and international diplomacy through the means of Model United Nations conferences, encouraging active debate, conflict resolution, negotiation, compromise and the expansion of worldly knowledge. In line with the AUD’s educational philosophy of stressing a well-rounded student experience and encouraging global understanding by providing an atmosphere of cultural diversity and opportunities for an international education, AUDMUN partakes in at least two international conferences a year to further develop their skills in areas such as teamwork, persuasive writing, debating and negotiation. Recent conferences that AUDMUN participated in are: Columbia Model United Nations in New York (CMUNNY). The National Model United Nations Conference held in Washington, D.C. (NMUNDC), operated by the National Collegiate Conference Association in partnership with the Osgood Center for International Studies.
