EfMUN 2017
Event information
We are happy to announce that we will host our own MUN conference EfMUN again in January 2017.
Traditionally, we simulate a General Assembly to provide the best possible exercise and preparation for larger simulations such as National Model United Nations in NYC. However, in 2016 we decided for the first time to also simulate a Security Council to allow participants to experience the varying dynamics in committees. This decision was so well received by the participants of EfMUN 2016, that we have decided to organize an additional committee at EfMUN 2017.
EfMUN 2017 will be held from January 20 - 22, 2017 in the marvelous town hall of Erfurt.
The following committees incl. topics will be discussed:
General Assembly:
1. Ensuring Developing Countries' Sovereignty over their natural resources
2. Privatization of War: Prohibition of Private Militias?
Security Council:
1. The Situation in Eastern Ukraine
2. Counterterrorism Measures
Historical Security Council (1948):
1. The Partition Plan of Palestine
At EfMUN we strive to provide all participants with a strong and academically excellent simulation, which allows them to use previously learned skills in rhetoric, negotiation and writing while at the same time creating a respectful and fun environment. In order to foster networking and socializing amongst participants, we organize various 'after-work-events' in the evening hours. Additionally, we want to share our love for our home town Erfurt and will organize a sightseeing tour of one of Germany's most beautiful cities.
The conference fee is 50 Euros which includes light snacks and coffee, tea and water during the conference as well as lunch on Saturday. Furthermore, we are happy to help with finding the right accommodation and provide some spots for couch surfing.
We kindly ask that you please register yourself by sending an email to mun@uni-erfurt.de with the following information:
