PHC’s student-run club participates in the National Collegiate Conference Association, which holds its National Model United Nations conference in New York City every year.Model United Nations is an academic simulation of the United Nations and aims to give students first-hand experience in multilateral diplomacy, bringing quick thinking and compromise to the negotiation table.
It brings together students from a variety of different countries, backgrounds, and political views to discuss solutions to global issues such a nuclear proliferation and human trafficking.
In the conference, students from across the globe represent delegations from different countries and serve in UN committees, such as the Security Council, the World Trade Organization, and the General Assembly.
Acting as foreign diplomats, students are expected to remain in-character, referring to each other only by country name while in competition rooms.
