“Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind.” – John F. Kennedy
SMUN2025
Letter from the Secretary-General

For the 10th edition of Swiss Model United Nations, better known as SMUN, the organizing team chose to guide the committee topics by choosing a quote by one of our world's past leaders: John F. Kennedy, who said that “Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind.”. Inspired by such words, the conference's debates shall focus on establishing global peace by avoiding the breakout, or putting an end to armed conflicts or political tensions.
Being in my 5th year of participating in MUN conferences and my last year of school, I am more than honored to serve as the Secretary-General for SMUN 2025. Although my career in MUN has not always been driven toward this goal, being in this position, I hope to inspire those of you who are new to this world not to give up. Five years ago I would have never pictured myself in such a position, so although now you might think you are not fit for MUN or don’t feel comfortable debating, don’t hesitate to take part in as many conferences as you can, your future self will thank you, or at least mine does.
With such words, I hope to see you all at the Swiss School of Curitiba from the 28th until the 30th of August, striving for great debates and creative solutions for the most varied topics. Aim to cooperate with your fellow delegates to achieve a more peaceful tomorrow, trying to avoid the breakout of WW3!
I sincerely hope to see all of you in August,
Frida Marie Lübke | SMUN ‘25 - Secretary General

What is SMUN?
Held annually by Colégio Suíço-Brasileiro de Curitiba, SMUN is a conference planned to bring the youth closer together and to engage young minds in discussions related to serious global issues. We believe that by passing on education and the UN principles of diplomacy, cooperation, respect and critical thinking, we as a society move one step forward in our fight for world peace. SMUN encourages delegates to be receptive to new ways of seeing the world’s pressing conflicts through three days of intense debate. Each year, at the end of our final sessions, the outcome of the delegates’ teamwork never fails to amaze us with the development of such innovative new policies present in their Resolutions. Thus, it was inevitable that - since its beginning- SMUN would become one of the most awaited events of the year for our students.
