MEDMUN 2025 : une cérémonie d’ouverture sous le haut patronage de S.A.S. le Prince Albert II de Monaco

Le 4 avril 2025, le Grimaldi Forum a accueilli la cérémonie d’ouverture

L’événement a été honoré par la présence de S.A.S. le Prince Albert II, réaffirmant son soutien indéfectible à la jeunesse engagée et à la coopération internationale.

Le thème de cette édition, “Strategic Alliances: New Generations Turning Divides into Dialogue”, a mis l’accent sur la capacité des jeunes à dépasser les clivages pour créer de nouvelles formes de dialogue international.

À ses côtés, de nombreuses personnalités ont pris part à cette session inaugurale :

  • Luis Vassy, directeur de Sciences Po Paris

  • Nasser Kamel, secrétaire général de l’Union pour la Méditerranée

  • François Gouyette, diplomate français

  • L’amiral Jean-Michel Martinet, directeur de projet à la FMES

  • Claude Fabbretti, directeur des actions internationales à la Croix-Rouge monégasque

  • I've had the opportunity to travel extensively and attend MUNs all over the world. MUNs all over the world and yet, in a way, MEDMUN is unique. It may be the location, the people, or the debates, but it's been above and beyond my expectations and for two years running. Over the four days of the conference conference, delegates and committee chairmen have the opportunity to to get to know each other in a way that no other MUN can offer.

  • Taking part in MEDMUN was an unforgettable experience that convinced me to apply to Sciences Po. The fervor of a fierce debate, the adrenalin of an intense crisis, the constant entertainment... I believe these ingredients are what that set MEDMUN apart from any other conference I've attended.

    Myriam Limam, Tunisian student at Sciences Po Paris, MEDMUN 2018 Delegate, MEDMUN 2019 Committee Chair and Coordinator of Committee for MEDMUN 2020

  • MEDMUN is the first conference to be organized by the various Sciences Po Paris campuses. The quality and depth of the debate during this conference on themes past and present are unmatched by any other conference in France, leaving space for the simulation of a rigorous political debate with an encouraging context that encourages people to want to learn more and to seize the opportunity for personal development.
