The Harvard World MUN is a huge organizational effort entirely run by undergrads. Hosting and putting things together for almost 3k people is indeed an achievement in itself. Participants will debate and negotiate for a full week, and eventually received by Pope Francis. Also, a parade under Harvard insignia and national flags from all over the world will be celebrated at the Coliseum with regional authorities. This is indeed a very special occasion, particularly if you are thinking of your children either they be teenager or in their twenties. Please feel free to join in with your family.

Italian Prime Minister, Matteo Renzi, Lazio Governor, Nicola Zingaretti, and University of Rome "la Sapienza" Provost, Eugenio Gaudio, will deliver short speeches.
