ABOUT DASMUN XVI
Our Mission
The Dhahran Ahliyya Schools Model United Nations is a student-run organization that aims to foster international awareness through its annual conference. The conference provides an open forum where educational, stimulating, and enjoyable discussions of global issues take place. Every year, hundreds of high school students gather at the Dhahran Ahliyya campus to participate in realistic committee simulations, engage in substantive debate, and learn from their fellow delegates. Realistic committee simulation allows delegates to gain confidence in public speaking, negotiation, writing, and teamwork while encouraging students to be active, compassionate leaders. DASMUN promotes a comfortable and professional atmosphere for new delegates while offering challenging committees for seasoned delegates. Since its founding in 2008, DASMUN has valued diplomacy, cooperation, and ingenuity, all of which are invaluable tools in shaping lives beyond the conference.
