DIMUN Mission Statement
The goal of Davidson’s
Invitational Model United Nations (DIMUN) is to teach
students the fundamental operation and mission of
the United Nations; raise awareness of complex global
issues; promote peace and the value of cooperation and
diplomacy. DIMUN seeks to reach these goals by
engaging students in self-directed research and
participation in a UN simulation. Through the DIMUN
experience students develop skills in leadership, team
building, research, persuasive writing, and debate.
