AST serves as an MUN conference center on Taiwan and hosts the Annual TAIMUN conference with all Taiwan international schools participating as well as local schools and international school from outside of Taiwan. All AST high school students participate in TAIMUNand are prepared for participation through a unit of our social studies curriculum.

Students who participate in the Model United Nations club at American School in Taichung get to immerse themselves in the thrills and challenges of debating global issues in front of classmates and, eventually, delegates from schools all over the world. MUN students attend the annual THIMUN Singapore conference.

The MUN club offers students the opportunity to delve into the exhilarating world of international relations. Students research vital global concerns and develop solutions through the process of writing and debating resolutions.

Members of the MUN club gain a number of invaluable life skills, such as: debating, negotiating, researching and professional writing. Club members need to be hardworking, self-motivated and dedicated in order to represent American School in Taichung as young diplomats.
