Venue: Online
Visit website

Event Date: 28/02/2025 10:00 (GMT) - 14:00 (GMT)

Model UN events are where young people simulate representing a country in the UN General Assembly and negotiate resolutions. 

Engage with China's annual, climate-change themed Model UN will take place on Friday 28 February 2025 at 1000 – 1400 GMT. Enable your pupils, aged 15-18, to join in our high-calibre debate, negotiating with peers from around the world (China, Africa and South America) dialling in across multiple time-zones. They do not need to have studied Mandarin as the event is in English but for those who have we offer the chance to make a short video welcome or to speak live in Mandarin to welcome the Chinese participants. 

The theme is Climate Change and the environment including many of the resolutions being negotiated at COP29 in November 2024.

Six Resolutions:

  • Phasing out Fossil Fuels
  • Financing transition for developing countries to a low carbon economy
  • Compensation to developing countries to counter the effects of Climate Change
  • Phasing out Plastics
  • Tackling Food Waste
  • Sustainable Fashion

Engage with China will be running two workshops before the event for schools new to participating in MUN’s and anyone needing assistance or a refresher.

Visit the website for more information or view the attached flyer and registration form. Please note there is a cost to attend.
