Carmelitas Delegation

On October 14, 2014, Alberto Varela, former Head Advisor, implemented the Model of United Nations, as an extracurricular project for high school students from the Carmelitas school. The following year, in 2015, the First Carmelite Model Conference of the United Nations (CarMUN) was held, which would later become one of the most statistically significant national school conferences.
Achieving the Best Large Delegation in Lima MUN, marked the beggining of numerous awards, both individually and by teams, in recognition of its outstanding participation in national conferences. However, we did not stop here, the delegation moved forward to an international level with many experiences abroad. In January 2020, a 16-member delegation had the opportunity to experience Harvard MUN 2020 in Boston, USA. Furthermore, on February 2023, we participated in NAIMUN, from Georgetown University in Washington DC, winning the Best International Delegation Award.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the delegation opted to continue preparing for and participating in debates in the virtual format. Thus, it maintained a presence on the national circuit, winning multiple awards, and also internationally, successfully participating in MUNUC (Model United Nations of the University of Chicago) and HNMUN-LA (Harvard National Model United Nations Latin America). More recently, our delegation participated in the Salpointe MUN conference, achieving multiple awards, a result of hard work and determination.
This year, our delegation proudly welcomes our new coaches, faculty advisors and delegates, who are thrilled to start this journey. As the secretariat, we are honored to present the 13th edition of CarMUN, a conference designed to inspire collaboration, diplomacy, and unforgettable experiences. We look forward to welcoming you to an event you will not want to miss.
"We have started as a delegation, and now we are a family constantly growing"
Message from Faculty Advisors
For us, the Model United Nations is much more than an academic simulation; it is a fundamental catalyst for human and intellectual growth. It is the art of educating the mind!
In the classroom, Model United Nations transforms theoretical knowledge into lived experience, teaching students that history, economics, and law are not static texts on a page, but dynamic forces that shape our collective future. It cultivates precisely the skills our world desperately needs: critical thinking, empathetic listening, consensus-building, and the

exceptional ability to view a complex issue from another nation’s perspective.
In our own lives, the Model United Nations has undoubtedly been fundamental. It took a quiet curiosity about the world and forged it into a lifelong commitment to global citizenship and diplomacy. It taught us that true leadership isn’t about having the loudest voice in the room, but about building the strongest bridges between divergent opinions. Through drafting resolutions late into the night and intense debates in the committees, we learned the power of compromise without sacrificing principles, a lesson that guides our actions both inside and outside the committee room every day.
By teaching young minds not only to debate but also to understand, MUN prepares the next generation to navigate an increasingly interconnected world with grace, intelligence, and unwavering diplomatic resolve.
On October 23 to 25, CarMUN opens its doors to the citizens of today to build bridges for tomorrow.
The gavel is waiting. Will you answer the call?
