Key Developments and Factual Context
This three-day program encourages Model United Nations (MUN) clubs to take concrete action in support of United Nations principles and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), by taking part in Model United Nations (MUN) conferences, exchanging firsthand knowledge about the United Nations, and organizing workshops to teach students how to make accurate simulations.
In an exclusive interview with Morocco Times TV, the Secretary-General of Committee Affairs at the International Model United Nations (MUN) Conference in Morocco, Mr. Anas Chihab, explained that the MUN is an international community where students from several universities and high schools come together and debate about various topics and issues facing the international community.
Strategic Significance and Regional Impact
Speaking about the change in the youth’s mindset over the last ten years, Chihab said that in comparison with 2013, there is a significant improvement in the level of engagement of the part of the Moroccan youth, particularly the ones who attend private schools, underlining that public school students must also be engaged in such events, thanks to “some kind of sponsorship or governmental help.”
For his part, Moroccan Youth Activist Mr. Nidal Benali emphasized the importance of encouraging the participation of the youth in the process of decision-making since “they are the leaders of today” before becoming the leaders of tomorrow.
Benali also encouraged placing trust in the youth to create a bridge between them and decision-makers, as an inaugural step towards a prosperous future for these young generations.
Looking Forward: 2026–2030 Roadmap
Looking ahead toward the close of 2026 and the 2027 calendar year, institutional roadmaps will prioritize consolidated delivery across all flagship initiatives. As Morocco accelerates preparations for major international hosting duties—most notably the 2030 FIFA World Cup alongside Spain and Portugal—every sector is aligning toward shared standards of excellence, digital modernization, and inclusive socio-economic impact.
