The Power of the Powerless: Strengthening Vulnerable Populations

The first session of the Model United Nations of the Far West was held at Stanford University in 1951. Three hundred and fifty students from three western states gathered to debate issues. From this small beginning, the organization has grown continuously. Although it is not the largest nor the oldest MUN organization, MUNFW is well known for its autonomy, the high quality of its delegates’ participation and the authenticity of its sessions.
