We were founded in 2016 by students of the Faculty of Law, the University of Lagos who attended the National Model United Nations in Washington DC, New York, and Rome and won numerous awards. From their experiences, they believed they had seen an incredible platform; a platform which had to be provided for African youth.
This is the humble story of Lagos Model United Nations which is the first ever Model United Nations hosted by a university in West Africa.
The Lagos Model United Nations is a simulation of the United Nations organs and other international bodies quintessential to the United Nations. Lagos Model United Nations (LMUN) is an Annual Conference organised by the Faculty of Law, University of Lagos. LMUN is focused on Young Adults and youths who want to strive to do more and ensure their voices are heard on world issues. Providing pragmatic solutions through resolutions, LMUN is a platform for development through experiential learning. By giving the delegates a centre stage to discuss, negotiate, mediate and speak confidently on global issues, the delegates become global citizens who are solution oriented and passionate about developing their various social milieus.
