The Asia Pacific Model United Nations Conference (AMUNC) is an annual travelling Model United Nations conference for university students. Each conference is hosted in a different city within the Asia-Pacific region, attracting approximately 600 students from Asia, the Pacific Islands, Australia and New Zealand, making it one of the largest regional model UN conferences in the world. AMUNC is run entirely by student volunteers, usually coordinated through a relevant student association who has been licensed with the right to host AMUNC by Asia-Pacific MUN Conference Limited, with the support and backing of the host university. The conference typically takes place over a week in July, encompassing a variety of activities, including role-playing committees, guest speakers, career information stalls, and an extensive evening social activities program. The twenty-fifth session of AMUNC, to be held at Resorts World Sentosa from 7-13 July 2019 has been cancelled.
