Hear from our past MUNtor participants
Heet D, Student
The training with MUNtor really helped me understand the overall procedure of an MUN. I had been to one earlier but had to self-learn most of it. The tips provided will be applied by me in all future MUNs. My interest in an MUN has grown even more after this.
Student
I quite liked the workshop as the host was very interactive, and the explanations of all the procedures were detailed. To add to that, all of my questions were answered and explained well!
Teacher Coordinator
The training was very satisfying and since my delegates are active MUN-ers, the content was perfect! Even my students shared positive feedback!
Teacher Coordinator
Thank you for taking the time to train my students. The training was very helpful with great tips, a great presentation, and experienced trainers!

What is MUNtor Emerge?

-
Can I sign up as an individual?
MUNtor programs have school-based and retail (individual) cohorts. So yes, you definitely can sign up as an individual!
-
What is the structure of the Emerge program?
It begins with the Immerse Stage. This is a self-guided course on Model UN, the curriculum of which can be found on below. Next comes the Converge Stage with three synchronous training sessions. Following this comes the final stage - the Emerge Stage. It is nothing but the Emerge Mock MUN, for you to test your learnings and get feedback on the same.
-
How long does a batch of the program run?

What is the review and feedback mechanism for this program?
While the course has reflective questions and quizzes to help students self-assess, the Mock MUN is built with the purpose of sharing feedback with participants who apply the knowledge acquired over the three weeks and is therefore accompanied with feedback and a comprehensive scoring sheet.
-
What MUN formats does the program cover?
The program applies exclusively to the HMUN, ILMUNC, YMUN and UNA- USA formats. It does not apply to UN4MUN and any other procedures that are not explicitly mentioned above.
