Model United Nations Development Programme, also known as MUNDP, is a Model of United Nations (MUN) conference that is held annually in one of the most prestigious schools in Turkey, The Koc School. Currently, it is the only conference of the world that Models the UNDP, not only MUN. It received affiliation from THIMUN in its session in 2012; with the affiliation, the fact that MUNDP can satisfy the top expectations in an MUN conference had become guaranteed. It is one of the oldest MUN conferences in Turkey, with a rich history including ups and downs for 13 years. MUNDP opened its first session with Kofi Annan, former Secretary-General of the United Nations.
