Catholic Schools United Nations Assembly
The Catholic Students United Nations Assembly (CSUNA), is a simulation of the United Nations that catapults students into the world of diplomacy and negotiation. CSUNA is hosted by St. Joseph's Morrow Park every year. As one of the largest Model United Nations conferences in Canada, it holds over 500 student delegates all over the Toronto Catholic District School Board. The student “delegates” draft resolutions, plot strategy, negotiate with supporters and adversaries, resolve conflicts and navigate the UN’s rules of procedures with all in the interest to resolve problems that affect almost every country in the world. CSUNA holds its conferences every year in the month of November at the CEC (Catholic Education Center) over the span of three days.

—D.H. (David Herbert)

—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
