Since founding PS-MUN in 2011, I’ve had the honour of watching it grow from a small, student-led initiative into one of the most meaningful and enduring traditions at Platon School. As the PS-MUN Conference Organiser, I’ve worked side by side with students each year to create an experience that empowers them to lead, speak, and think globally.
PS-MUN is where students come alive as diplomats, researchers, and problem-solvers. They learn to listen, to question, to collaborate, and to believe in the strength of their own voice. For me, as both an educator and mentor, this conference reflects the very best of what education can offer: purpose, connection, and transformation.
What truly sets PS-MUN apart is its strong sense of community. From the very beginning, we envisioned it as a family-oriented conference, rooted in the values of respect, inclusion, and mutual support. That spirit is felt in every committee room, every shared challenge, and every moment of growth. It’s not just about writing resolutions, it’s about forming lasting bonds and discovering who you are and the impact you want to make in the world.
I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built together and even more excited for what’s ahead. We can’t wait to welcome you into our PS-MUN family this March.

From my first experience as a delegate in 2010 to now serving as Conference Manager, PS-MUN has shaped my journey in countless ways. Over the years as a delegate, chair, Secretariat member, and now organiser, I’ve seen how MUN helps students grow into confident speakers, critical thinkers, and compassionate leaders.
PS-MUN is more than just an academic simulation; it’s a transformative experience. It challenges participants to explore complex global issues, engage with diverse perspectives, and lead with purpose and empathy. As Conference Manager, my goal is to ensure a smooth, inclusive, and inspiring environment where every delegate feels empowered to contribute. I am proud to uphold the values that define PS-MUN: respect, diplomacy, and student leadership.
We look forward to welcoming you this March for a truly meaningful PS-MUN experience.

Since 2019, I have had the privilege of being part of the Platon School family, guiding students through the rewarding journey of Model United Nations. With many years of experience as an MUN advisor and through attending conferences across Europe, I have seen how deeply this experience enriches students fostering intellectual growth, global awareness, and confident leadership. The unexpected cancellation of the 2020 PS-MUN conference due to the global pandemic was a significant setback for all of us involved. However, the successful transition to online conferences in 2021 and 2022 demonstrated not only our resilience but also the enduring relevance of PS-MUN’s core values: academic excellence, integrity, diplomacy, and student empowerment.
As Director, I am committed to preserving and advancing these principles. PS-MUN is a space where students are encouraged to think independently, collaborate across cultures, and engage with challenging global issues with both intellect and empathy. Our goal is to provide a platform that fosters not only debate, but also thoughtful leadership, ethical responsibility, and mutual respect.
We look forward to welcoming you to PSMUN in March and continuing the tradition of excellence that defines our conference.

At Platon School, we see education as a journey that shapes responsible, curious, and globally minded individuals. In my role as Deputy Head of the Senior High School, I have the privilege of supporting students as they explore the world beyond the classroom, through critical thinking, cross-cultural dialogue, and global awareness.
PS-MUN is much more than a Model United Nations conference. It is a carefully guided academic experience where students engage in in-depth research, refine their public speaking and negotiation skills, and confront complex international issues with empathy and insight.
Each year, I am proud to witness our students embody the values we cherish at Platon School: respect, intellectual rigor, and ethical leadership. Their growth through PS-MUN is not only academic, but deeply personal. They emerge more articulate, more confident, and more ready to contribute meaningfully to the world around them.
I warmly encourage all students to take part in this truly enriching opportunity, an experience that stays with them far beyond their school years

What first drew me to MUN was an interest in international affairs, but what made me stay was the sense of community it offered. I have experienced MUN conferences from most available perspectives: first as a delegate, then as a Student Officer and Secretariat member, a Secretary General and in the last few years as a member of the Organising Team. My key takeaway is that MUN is about more than resolutions and awards. Its most valuable offering is constituting a space for people to grow, contribute, and feel part of something larger than themselves.
In my opinion, no conference reflects that more than PS-MUN. Its approach of combining high academic standards with genuine enjoyment has consistently reminded me why I value MUN so deeply. Over time, PS-MUN has come to feel like a family that supports, challenges, and inspires me, and I’m proud to contribute to its continued success. It’s the spirit of collaboration and the space it creates for everyone to contribute that has made PS-MUN a lasting part of my MUN journey.
