Who We Are

A Model UN conference by teens, for teens.

Teens for Peace Model UN is the world's first youth MUN conference focusing primarily on issues impacting children and teenagers around the globe. From the beginning, we've been focused on making Model UN accessible to newcomers and young leaders ready to make a difference in the world and in their communities. As a free, online conference open to all delegates and including complimentary beginner delegate training, we pride ourselves on plurality, and we'd love to hear your voice in our innovative debates, where teens discuss issues impacting themselves - a new way to MUN.

Thank you, TPMUN 3.0 Delegates, Secretariat, and Staff!

Together, we were able to bring together 75+ teens from 35+ countries to discuss crucial issues from Child Labor and Its Causes to Child Soldiers and Their Societal Reintegration to Climate Change through our unique Sinking of Venice Crisis committee.

TPMUN 3.0 on July 11-12 was the most successful conference in TPMUN's history, with delegates from every corner of the world passionately debating issues they care deeply about and developing resolutions that incorporated both tested and novel solutions. 


The ILO on the topic of Child Labor created unique solutions focusing on sexual exploitation of children, guiding at-risk countries towards education-focused solutions, collaborating with UN Women, using due diligence laws that monitor compliance, creating a new ILO subsidiary body to assist on research collection and promote collective bargaining to set fair prices and wages, and laying out new ways of reporting and rehabilitating from incidents of child labor.


The UNHRC on the topic of Child Soldiers also worked off of more proven solutions to build creative ones, building the framework for a new educational fund and investment, encouraging targeted economic growth to decrease types of poverty that perpetuate the usage of child soldiers, stressing the importance of cooperation, and creating programs for psychological therapy to victims.


Our Crisis committee on the Sinking of Venice went in some fascinating directions, from the assassination of the Italian president to pumping foam underground to lift the Venetian islands to devising creating ways, to US-Russian tensions, and finally to the political takeover of the Italian Minister of Universities and Research.

Home: About Us

"On the surface, Model UN is about taking young leaders and giving them an issue to solve. 9 times out of 10, you'll get a better result than with adults. Young people care. You don't see that with adults. By targeting issues that impact children and teenagers, we build a culture of empathy and compassion."

Maxwell Hyman, Founder & Secretary-General
