MUN-UPD's Annual Flagship Conference
PHILIPPINE INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS
United by a shared passion for diplomacy and international relations, MUN-UPD annually hosts the Philippine International Model United Nations (PHIMUN)—a platform that brings together students who aspire to become courageous delegates, principled leaders, and compassionate advocates.
​
Since its inaugural run in 2018, MUN-UPD has envisioned PHIMUN to be the premier MUN Conference in the Philippines—a democratic, pluralistic, and forward-thinking space where young people from around the world practice the art of diplomacy and collaborate on solutions for humanity’s most pressing challenges. Guided by the MUN-UPD tenets, “travel, debate, experience, learn,” PHIMUN continues to promote vibrancy, inclusivity, and global citizenry, ensuring that no voice is left unheard in the pursuit of sustainable development and collective progress.
​
After five years of service and diplomacy, MUN-UPD returns this coming June with PHIMUN 2026, its sixth iteration. Amid deglobalization and forgotten crises, the conference—anchored on
Transcending Borders
For Change
the theme “Cultivating Diplomatic Resilience: Addressing the Issues of Marginalized Groups and Forgotten Crises in an Era of Deglobalization”—reasserts itself as a platform for global dialogue, critical thought, and youth empowerment through diplomacy.
In the years ahead, MUN-UPD remains committed to building a vibrant and inclusive diplomatic community that transcends borders, uplifts diverse voices, and empowers the youth to take part in shaping a more sustainable and equitable world — fulfilling PHIMUN’s vision and mission to embody the spirit of solidarity across borders.
