CCEE San Diego Involvement

Since 2001, CCEE San Diego has played a central role in the annual Junior Model United Nations convention held at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at the University of San Diego.

Each year awards are given to delegates who exhibit excellence in each of the councils, assemblies and committees. These gavel-type awards are highly sought after and coveted by participating students. In addition, an Outstanding School Delegation Award and the prestigious Patrick Pierson Award for Excellence in Economic Understanding and Reasoning are given.
