WEMUN Expo in action.

WE Model United Nations Expo (WEMUN Expo) was established in 2007 and was one of the first high-school Model United Nations conferences in China. It has become international with delegates from around 30 different countries and with over 1500 delegates,[1] and has now grown to become the largest permanent Model UN conference in Asia.[2] The conference takes place at the Grand Epoch City Hotel in the outskirts of Beijing annually at the beginning of August.[3] The conference is unique as being the first MUN to unite twelve notable high-school and university level conferences, which are the following:[1][4]
