Why NewAgeMUN

More than a conference.

NewAgeMUN combines the competition of a strategy game, the connections of a professional conference, and the intellectual challenge of international affairs.

01

Compete

Represent a country. Build alliances. Negotiate under pressure. Respond to unexpected developments. Your decisions matter—and you'll be competing for recognition as one of the conference's strongest delegates.

02

Connect

Meet people who share your interest in geopolitics, history, strategy, business, policy, and international affairs. NewAgeMUN is designed to create meaningful interaction rather than passive attendance.

03

Learn

Engage with real geopolitical issues through simulation. Challenge yourself to see an old problem through a new lens.

The Experience

Serious enough to challenge you. Social enough to enjoy.

You don't need to be a professional diplomat—or have any previous Model UN experience. You just need to be interested in the world and willing to play the game.

Strategy

Every delegation has objectives, constraints, and competing interests. The strongest strategy isn't always the loudest one.

Negotiation

Build coalitions, negotiate agreements, and persuade other delegates to support your country's interests.

Crisis

The situation won't stay static. New developments can force you to abandon your original plan and adapt.

Competition

Awards recognize delegates who demonstrate effective diplomacy, strategic thinking, leadership, and impact.

Community

Meet people from different professional and academic backgrounds who are genuinely interested in international affairs.

Who it's for

You don't need to be a student to care about the world.

Improve your understanding of the world around you by working side by side with other passionate professionals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Before you play.

Do I need previous Model UN experience?
No. NewAgeMUN is designed to be accessible to people who have never participated in Model United Nations. You'll receive the information and resources you need to understand your role and participate effectively.
Is NewAgeMUN only for adults?
NewAgeMUN is designed primarily around an adult audience, but the conference is open to all ages. The goal is to create an experience that is engaging and challenging regardless of your academic or professional background.
What actually happens during a conference?
Delegates represent countries or other actors and work through a simulated international situation. You'll negotiate with other delegates, form alliances, draft agreements, respond to developments, and compete based on your performance.
Is this a debate competition?
Not exactly. Debate and public speaking can be useful, but NewAgeMUN is primarily about diplomacy, negotiation, strategy, and decision-making. The strongest delegate isn't necessarily the person who speaks the most.
How much will it cost?
We currently expect the inaugural conference to cost approximately $55 per participant. Final pricing will depend on the venue, committee structure, and other conference details.
Can I register a group?
Yes. To register a group, please reach out directly to admin@newagemun.com
When and where will the first conference be?
The inaugural NewAgeMUN conference is currently planned for Cedar Rapids, Iowa in Fall 2027. The specific date and venue have not yet been finalized. We're using the interest list to help determine whether there is enough demand to move forward.
Does joining the interest list commit me to attending?
No. Joining the interest list is completely free and does not commit you to purchasing a ticket or attending the conference. It simply lets us know that you'd like to hear when registration becomes available.
