The 2023 American Model United Nations (AMUN) conference will be held Nov. 18-21 at the Sheraton Grand Chicago in Chicago, Ill.

A few of the topics under discussion include cybersecurity, women’s economic empowerment, preventing and combating human trafficking, rights of indigenous peoples, nuclear disarmament, promotion and protections of the rights of children, illicit trade in small arms, international migration and development.
