For 20 years, LIMUN has helped create experiences and conferences that have engaged with thousands of students and helped inform them about the United Nations and other international organisations.
These programs have only been possible through the commitment and support of our volunteers ranging from Logistics Staff and Press, Chairs and Secretariat Members. These conferences are however led by our Secretaries-General, appointed by an electoral college of the Trustees and outgoing Secretariat members.
