What CCMUN | Champlain College Model United Nations does

CCMUN (Champlain College Model United Nations) is a student-run Model United Nations conference organization operating under Champlain College Saint-Lambert, a public CEGEP in Saint-Lambert, Quebec, Canada. Founded in 2015, CCMUN hosts an annual, beginner-friendly conference designed to introduce new delegates to MUN while offering advanced options for experienced participants. The 2026 edition — the 12th annual iteration, scheduled for October 9th-11th — is the first-ever three-day conference and introduces a Joint Crisis Committee alongside the existing General Assembly (UN SDG 6: Access to Clean Water), Specialized Agency (Boxing Day Tsunami, Indonesia 2004), and Beginner Crisis (The 75th Hunger Games) committees.

The underlying technology stack is minimal: the conference is delivered as a live, in-person diplomatic simulation with registration, awards, and delegate materials managed through a standard WordPress-based website and Instagram/Facebook/LinkedIn social channels. There is no proprietary software platform, no mobile application, and no API integration disclosed. Operational tooling consists of a Delegate Handbook, position paper submission via dedicated committee email addresses, and an awards program recognizing Best Delegate, Outstanding Delegate, Honourable Mention, Outstanding Position Paper, and Best Large/Small Delegation.

The revenue model is a non-commercial, event-driven GTM: CCMUN generates gross receipts from tiered delegate registration (Early Bird $60 CAD, Regular $65 CAD, Late $70 CAD) plus per-delegation fees ($55-$65 CAD), purchased collectively by head delegates and faculty advisors on behalf of school delegations. A portion of merchandise and donation proceeds is directed to the designated charity partner (Chez Doris for 2025). Champlain College's own delegation participates in ranked external circuits including McMUN (McGill) and ConMUN (Concordia). The organization has no external investors, no funding rounds, and no parent-company ownership beyond its institutional host.

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• WIMUN (World International Model United Nations): UN-affiliated simulation conference with a more formal, procedural focus, often featuring UN-trained directors. It appeals to the same beginner-through-advanced delegate spectrum but with a stronger institutional credential angle than CCMUN.

Direct peers

• UConcordia Crisis Conference: Crisis-focused MUN committee offerings from Concordia's circuit represent a comparable advanced crisis format to CCMUN's new Joint Crisis Committee. Both compete for experienced delegates seeking sophisticated crisis simulations.
• SSUNS (Secondary School United Nations Symposium): One of the largest Canadian high school MUN conferences, hosted by the University of Toronto. It competes directly with CCMUN for the same high school delegation market across Canada and serves as a benchmark for committee offerings and scale.
• ConMUN (Concordia University Model United Nations): Concordia University's annual MUN conference in Montreal, attended by the same Champlain College delegation. It is a near-twin peer in terms of market segments, geography, and committee format, and is a direct competitor for Quebec-based school delegations.
• York Model United Nations (YorkMUN): York University's MUN conference, a directly comparable Canadian university-hosted conference competing for the same Eastern Canadian high school delegation pool with similar committee formats and pricing structures.
• McMUN (McGill University Model United Nations): McGill University's annual Model UN conference, also based in Quebec and serving Canadian high school and university delegates. CCMUN's own delegation attends McMUN as a ranked conference, making it the most direct functional peer in terms of conference format, geography, and audience.
• MUNSA (University of Toronto Model United Nations): A university-organized MUN conference also competing for Canadian high school and university delegates. Similar conference-driven revenue model, committee structure, and tiered registration approach to CCMUN.

Others

• Best Delegate Model United Nations Institute: A MUN training and resource platform that runs its own conferences and camps. While not a direct conference peer, it operates in the same ecosystem and represents a potential competitor in the beginner-train-conference pipeline that CCMUN targets.

Broad incumbents

• HMUN (Harvard Model United Nations): Harvard's prestigious MUN conference attracting thousands of high school delegates globally. Represents the elite, highly selective end of the market that CCMUN deliberately does not target with its beginner-friendly positioning.
• NAIMUN (North American Invitational Model UN): Georgetown University's flagship MUN conference, one of the largest and most prestigious in North America. It represents the upper-tier incumbent against which smaller regional conferences like CCMUN must differentiate via accessibility and beginner-friendly positioning.
