Millions of young people around the world have been participating in “Model UN” sessions over the years, trying to simulate negotiations in the world forum, educate themselves about global issues and processes, and instil youthful energy and potential solutions to often age-old problems. To celebrate the 75th anniversary of the United Nations on the day world leaders are scheduled to do so, 21 September 2020, and with it observe the International Day of Peace also falling on the same day, this event will be bringing together aspiring young people with seasoned diplomats and international civil servants in a lively discussion about the model (i.e. exemplar) UN we need in order to get the model/better world we want. It will be a moment of co-creation of the UN75 experienced generation with the UN75+25 upcoming generation, united in human solidarity and hope, creative energy and positive ambition.
