Cairo International Model United Nations is a collegiate level Model United Nations organisation that is based in Cairo, Egypt. The CIMUN program is the oldest student activity on the American University in Cairo campus and is currently recognised as one of the largest inter-collegiate Model United Nations programs outside of North America.
The Opening Ceremony of CIMUN’s famed March Conference is considered to be one of the most important annual events held at the American University in Cairo. The list of previous keynote speakers at our opening include:
- Former Secretary General of the UN H.E. Kofi Annan
- Former Secretary General of the UN H.E. Boutros Boutros Ghali
- Former Secretary General of the Arab League H.E. Amr Moussa
- Secretary General of the Arab League H.E. Nabil El Arabi
Since 2007 The CIMUN family has been glad to have high school students every year in this major event (Junior CIMUN) which gathered around 400 delegates last year. Our participants in the last 5 years succeeded in tackling topics of concern in a diplomatic manner, enriching their debates with creative ideas and inspiring thoughts, and concluding it with the adoption of their resolutions to the topics.
Not only have we been simulating the diplomatic aspect of the UN, but also we have been simulating the proactive side of the UN as well. Through our Awareness, Development and Environmental Programmes, we carry our message outside the boundaries of our councils to the real world, believing that this group of young students can truly make a difference in their Communities.
