Past conferences · 2018–2026
Our history
From a public-school initiative in Athens to an international three-day conference, AML MUN has grown through the work of students, educators, and delegates.
Where it began
A conference built by a school community
AML MUN is the Model United Nations conference organised by Anavryta Model Lyceum in Athens, Greece. The first conference took place in March 2018, created and run by a public high school with the aim of making Model UN accessible to more students.
Successful sessions followed in 2019 and 2020, giving students from across Greece a place to practise diplomacy, debate global issues, and learn from one another. A fourth conference was planned for 2021 but was cancelled during the COVID-19 pandemic.
AML MUN returned on 22–23 November 2025. More than 400 students from across Attica took part, supported by a large team of students and teachers and renewed conference infrastructure.
The fifth conference continues that story on 27–29 November 2026: three full days of debate, expanded technology, and participation from beyond Greece.
Recognition
A silver award for community and collaboration
In 2026, the 4th AML MUN Conference received a Silver award in the Community and Collaboration category of the ELT Excellence Awards.
The recognition celebrates the work of Evangelia Karagiannidou and the Anavryta Model Lyceum community: students and teachers working together to make a meaningful conference experience possible.
