NISMUN, the Model United Nations of Naseem International School, embodies the principles of
diversity, globalization, and leadership that are at the core of the IB culture. It empowers students to
step into leadership roles, embodying the learner profile instilled by the IB. Serving as a vital tool in their
development, NISMUN prepares students to become future leaders of the world.
Each year, NISMUN brings together over 300 students for its two-day conferences, engaging them in
captivating discussions and debates on pressing global issues. It provides a platform for students to
delve into topics that may not be covered in their curriculum but are crucial for understanding the
world. By encouraging alliances and advocating for or against unfamiliar issues, NISMUN underscores
the importance of unity, peace, and resolution.
Under the guidance of the faculty advisor, the students orchestrate a simulation that mirrors a real-life
United Nations conference. NISMUN is an event by the students, for the students, fostering their sense
of ownership and agency.
NISMUN has witnessed growth in size, enthusiasm, and scope. Students have surpassed expectations
over the years, presenting innovative and thought-provoking ideas related to the ever-evolving global
landscape. To sustain and nurture interest, participation and training have been extended to younger
Middle School students.
In 2018, our school hosted two momentous MUN conferences, NISMUN IV (March) and NISMUN V
(November), attracting over 300 attendees, including students from Saudi Arabia. These conferences
focused on sustainability, women empowerment, and equality, and introduced an Arabic-speaking
council. Notably, NISMUN was the first of its kind to involve 12-13-year-old delegates from the Middle
School, nurturing and training the next generation of leaders.
