Luther College Model United Nations (LCMUN)

The Luther College Model United Nations (LCMUN) team has a strong commitment toward creating awareness on political, economic, social, and humanitarian issues that affect the entire global community.

Each year, the Model United Nations (MUN) team is assigned a country where students represent Luther as a delegation. Students take part in a wide variety of United Nations committees, agencies, and bodies including the Security Council, the General Assembly, Economic and Social Council, the International Court of Justice, Food and Agricultural Organization, and World Health Organization. Each committee has their own respective topics which requires in-depth research from the perspective of their country’s foreign policy. During the process, students gain knowledge of international law, parliamentary procedures as well as develop their public speaking and diplomatic skills. Overall, being an MUN delegate helps students develop a global perspective to address the challenges we face in the 21st century.

Each year, Luther students emulate the legislative processes of the United Nations at a regional or national conference. We encourage new members of the Luther community to join our club. Please email to receive the latest updates and follow our Instagram account.
