MSG Varsity and the Institute of Domestic and International Affairs have teamed up to present Model UN, a United Nations simulation conference that engages high school students in intense debate with their peers about important and complex international issues. The documentary series follows four local high school teams – Briarcliff High School (Westchester), H. Frank Carey High School (Long Island), Floral Park Memorial High School (Long Island) and Watchung Hills Regional High School (NJ) - as they prepare and participate in the Philadelphia Model United Nations (PhilMUN). PhilMUN is a four-day United Nations simulation conference where students work together to learn the intricacies of national policies and examine the impact that a state has on global affairs.
