OVERVIEW

A conference built on intention.

JBCN MUN 2026 is the first at-scale collaboration between JBCN Parel and JBCN Chembur. Over two days at our Chembur campus, delegates from across Mumbai debate the world's most consequential questions — with the sharpness of a competitive conference and the warmth of a school that has been running MUNs for over a decade.

This edition brings together two Secretariats, one shared Executive Board, and a united logistics team — a rare kind of conference where the collaboration behind the scenes matches the diplomacy on the floor.

Vision

To build a room where student diplomats learn to disagree well, negotiate hard, and leave a little more curious about the world.

Mission

To run the most rigorous, most welcoming, and most well-organised MUN in Mumbai — for first-time delegates and veterans alike.

Why JBCN MUN

A decade of MUN heritage, an Executive Board of accomplished MUNers, and a Secretariat that has been in every seat in the room before it ran one.

PAREL × CHEMBUR

Two campuses. One conference.

For 2026, JBCN Parel and JBCN Chembur are joining forces. The Secretariat is drawn from both campuses; the Executive Board features directors and assistant directors from Parel and Chembur; and the venue — Chembur — hosts the entire two-day arena.

The goal is simple: keep the standard Parel is known for, and open it up to a wider Mumbai delegate pool through Chembur's growing MUN community.
