Model United Nations Team (Begins Sept 15, 2025) Meets on Mon - Tues (6th-8th Grade.)

The Model United Nations program is a fun and rigorous program that allows scholars to explore the same topics debated by the nations of the world.  Galapagos scholars develop skills such as research, debate, negotiation and public speaking as they advocate for topics related to nuclear disarmament, human rights and environmental standards. Scholars will participate in two remote conferences and four off-site MUN conferences in Cleveland, Ohio, East Lansing, Michigan, Springfield, Massachusetts (invite only), and Peoria, Illinois. (Dates of these conferences will be announced soon.) In these conferences, they will represent different countries and advocate for the policy position that their country would likely take. The team meets on Mondays and Tuesdays, from 4 pm until 5:10 pm, beginning September 15, 2025 at the UA.  The price of this program is $20. Please note that there will be additional fees for the off-site conferences. Conference dates will be announced at a later date.  Fir
