On behalve of the THIMUN Foundation, I would like to share this Global MUN survey with you and encourage you all to participate and share it among your friends and MUN communities. Please help us gather as much useful information as possible!
See the article below;
Two years ago we were inspired by the idea that the Model United Nation’s
community, past and present delegates alike, had a tremendous amount to say
about the impact of MUN in their lives. This is particularly relevant for
those of us who have worked to build and sustain programs in our schools and
communities. With little ‘hard evidence’ as to the impact Model UN has
had on individuals, teachers have had to rely on anecdotal evidence and the
‘gut feeling’ they get as they watch their delegates evolve through their
MUN participation. But school administrations, business offices, and often
parents do not see or feel this impact. Harder, statistical data is something
that potential stakeholders can more easily understand, and in turn, this
strengthens the ability of students and teachers alike to advocate for Model
United Nations.

The THIMUN Foundation through the THIMUN Qatar office is very pleased to
announce the opening of the first global MUN survey with the aim of
validating much of what we believe to be true about MUN. This survey hopes
to:
- assess the motivation and perceptions of current and past MUN delegates
- identify the skills and mindsets that left a lasting impression on
participants
- assess the impact MUN has had on university selection and their eventual
career paths
- provide feedback on the current state of MUN and the direction its
participants feel it should be headed.
There is also an optional section to tell your ‘MUN Story’, and if you
agree, to share this with a larger audience.
The survey will be open for three weeks, closing on November 14, and
preliminary results will then be assessed.
In order to get the most accurate view of MUN participation, we are asking
for your help in sharing this survey as widely as possible. Please feel free
to forward this email to anyone you see fit. We are particularly interested
in connecting with adults who participated in MUN in high school and/or
university.
I hope you will be a part of these efforts to spread this survey to all MUN
networks.
Please email me at lmartin@qf.org.qa [2]

Kind Regards,
Lisa Martin
Head of THIMUN Qatar
