Are you interested in international affairs, public speaking, and negotiating? Looking for something fun to do in your mid-semester break? Then you should participate in MUNash: Monash University Model United Nations Conference.<\/p>\n

MUNash will run from Monday 29 September<\/strong> until Wednesday 1 October<\/strong> (during the mid-semester break) at the Caulfield campus, and is organised by the Monash International Affairs Society and Orion College.<\/p>\n

A Model United Nations is a simulation of the UN General Assembly and other multilateral bodies. In a Model UN, students step into the shoes of ambassadors from UN member states to debate current issues on the organisation\u2019s agenda. While playing their roles as ambassadors, student \u201cdelegates\u201d make speeches, prepare draft resolutions, negotiate with allies and adversaries, resolve conflicts, and navigate the Model UN rules of procedure \u2013 all in the interest of mobilising international cooperation to resolve problems that affect countries all over the world.<\/p>\n
