Our mission: The goal of the Greater St. Louis Area Model United Nations Conference is to connect students from around the St. Louis area to generate solutions for lasting change. Through exciting and fast-paced debate, we hope to spark a conversation about the issues that affect us all and develop student public-speaking skills. Through speakers like Maxine Clark and workshops from local change-makers, we hope to give students an insight into what they can do for their community beyond the debate halls. Through inter-school conversation and collaboration, we hope to bring the whole St. Louis community just a little bit closer together.
For our city. For our world.
