EDMUN Volunteer Program (EVP Cohort 1)

Program Overview

Each year, the Emerging Diplomats Model United Nations (EDMUN) partners with dedicated volunteers who play essential roles in delivering a successful conference. In recognition of their commitment and impact, EDMUN is proud to introduce the EDMUN Volunteer Program (EVP) — a structured leadership and diplomacy development pathway designed to reward volunteers with meaningful growth opportunities.
