A Stage for Tomorrow's Diplomats

COPMUN — the Copenhagen Model United Nations — is a student-led simulation of UN proceedings, bringing together young delegates from international schools in Copenhagen.

Students step into the shoes of UN representatives, debating pressing global challenges, drafting resolutions, and building the diplomatic skills essential for global citizenship. Co-organised by LFPH and ISH, two of Copenhagen's leading international schools.

Security Council
"Addressing the ongoing insurgency in Balochistan"

For over 77 years, the Balochistan region has been at the centre of a violent conflict over autonomy. In early 2026, coordinated attacks by the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) targeting civilians and foreign nationals have prompted urgent Security Council attention. Delegates will examine the roles of Pakistan, China, India, Iran, the UK and the US.
