Meet Josué.
Estudiante de la Universidad de Duke estudiando matemáticas e informática. Fundó JAMUN para hacer que la competencia académica sea accesible para todos los estudiantes de secundaria.
What Josué does at JAMUN.
When I was eleven, a Model UN conference cracked open a part of my brain I didn't know existed. Suddenly research felt like a contact sport and a room full of strangers felt like a team I'd been waiting to join.
JAMUN started as a refusal to accept that those rooms were paywalled — and grew, conference by conference, into the program I wished had existed when I was eleven.
