The United Nations Models are educational and cultural events in which young people of middle and university level, main protagonists, participate as ambassadors and delegates (they will represent the different Member States or international organizations and non-governmental organizations recognized by the UN), debate on relevant topics of the global agenda. “An indisputable ally of democracy and the rule of law, this Program encourages discussion, dialogue and tolerance with other cultures and other ways of thinking.” Other young people will be the MNU authorities. All of them will be the direct beneficiaries of this experience. The project converted the Depository Library of the United Nations and Habitat into an Information Center.
