Peruvian Universities Debate Team

Beginning its participation in international conferences in 2006, the United Nations Studies Circle (CENU) became the Peruvian Association for the Study of the United Nations (AENU Peru for its Spanish acronym), a non-for-profit NGO charged with task of promoting MUN in Peru and creating Peru's first "National Delegation", using past experience to select the finest delegates from Peru's finest universities, creating then Peruvian Universities.[2] In addition to its debate team, AENU Peru also has a volunteer program (Accion AENU) and organizes the largest national Model UN conference annually since 2012 (LiMUN).[3] In March 2015 AENU Peru and Peruvian Universities Debate Team successfully hosted the annual Harvard National Model United Nations Latin America (HNMUNLA) conference in Lima, Peru.[4][5]

Since its foundation in 2010, their participation in Model UN conferences yielded multiple awards in national and international conferences. Peruvian Universities Debate Team has been ranked as one of the top international debate teams around the world in 2011,[6] 2012[7][8] and 2013;[9] recently being included in the World's Best International Model UN Teams 2015-2016[10] and ranked #10 at the Best College Model UN Teams - World Division: International Top 20.[11] Being the first Model UN Peruvian force, it's the Peruvian delegation with more Best Delegate Awards (four earned in 2012, 2013, 2015 and 2016 respectively), the one with more Diplomacy Awards in a year (seven in 2016) and the one with more prizes in a single HNMUN conference (eleven in 2015).[12][13][14] The debate team has also won the Best Large Delegation Award at Harvard World Model United Nations 2014 and at Harvard National Model United Nations Latin America 2017.
