47 YEARS OF CACMUN
ABOUT CACMUN
Cairo American College's Model United Nations club provides an enriching forum for students to discuss the different perspectives on current international issues. The club meets to practice debate procedures, resolution writing, and to learn about assigned countries and issues.
CAC has been known to host a three-day long conference (CACMUN) which features five committees, and a plenary experience: the General Assembly Commissions on Disarmament and International Security (DISC), Human Rights Council (HRC), the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the Security Council (SC), and the International Court of Justice (ICJ). However, CACMUN has developed and evolved with every conference we have had, and has seen so much growth over the years. At CACMUN 47, the number of committees has doubled, with the addition of the 1947 Security Council (1947 SC), The newly-introduced Economic and Financial Committee (ECOFIN), The Special Political and Decolonization Committee (SPECPOL), the General Assembly (GA), and the Special Conference on Artificial Intelligence (SPC on AI).
CACMUN is student-led, as a team of student officers (The Secretariat), as well as committee chairs, are key to organizing the conference. CACMUN is affiliated with The Hague International Model United Nations, the largest high school MUN in the world.​
Every year, CAC proudly sends a student delegation to The Hague International Model United Nations (THIMUN), one of the most prestigious MUN conferences in the world. In THIMUN 2025, CAC delegates represented the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Federated States of Micronesia, and several individual roles across a range of committees. Through thoughtful debate, policy writing, and collaboration with students from around the globe, the CAC delegation continued to uphold a strong tradition of excellence, diplomacy, and global engagement on the international stage.
Since 1978
47 years of CACMUN
In 1978, Mrs. Barbara Johnson founded CACMUN. Amazed at the international body of students at Cairo American College, she saw potential. 47 years later, CACMUN continues to embrace its international community. While times were certainly different in 1978, the delegates and leaders of both past and present have all shared in a common desire, to make the world a better place. Whether it is a discussion of human rights in East Germany or the current war in Ukraine, CACMUN has always been a conference of today's issues and will continue to be a forum for young diplomats.
