What sets CRIMUN apart from other Model UN conferences?

CRIMUN Staff

CRIMUN has become one of the most relevant Model United Nations conferences in the region. This is not only because of its organization but also because of its inclusive, academic, and human-centered approach, where any student can take part in the experience regardless of background, age, or previous experience.

Since the beginning, CRIMUN has aimed to eliminate barriers. Every year, scholarships are offered to students with socioeconomic disadvantages, detailed training manuals are provided for delegates, and in recent editions, simultaneous translation has been implemented to ensure access to content in any language.

Jimmyr Centeno, who serves in Outreach, highlights that this model empowers low-income youth and provides them with real tools to become leaders. Continuous support and a respectful environment are key elements that set this project apart from more traditional models.

CRIMUN features early planning and a collaborative environment where supervisors are open and always willing to hear new ideas. This openness allows each edition to evolve and adapt to the changing needs of its participants.

The staff selection process is not random. Those who want to join must fill out a form, demonstrate specific skills, and go through an interview process. This helps ensure that every team member brings value, commitment, and vision to the project.

On the other hand, delegates are not filtered or selected based on academic merit. CRIMUN does not impose barriers, allowing anyone interested to participate. This reinforces the idea of a more equitable and transformative education, one that believes in the potential of all voices and in the richness of diversity.

This combination of professional structure and inclusive spirit makes CRIMUN a model worth following. It is not just a conference. It is a bridge of knowledge that now connects more than 3,000 young people from diverse backgrounds
