Model United Nations (MUN)<\/h4><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Model United Nations is a well-known simulation game in which students and university students take on the roles of diplomats and discuss current topics from the programs of UN bodies and organizations. The aim of the simulation is for participating students to gain knowledge about diplomacy, international relations, and the UN. While preparing for their participation as representatives of different countries, they conduct research, formulate position papers for their country, and make policy proposals, which they then discuss as delegates in the respective forum. At the end of the simulated forums, resolutions are voted on with the goal of reaching consensus among the participating delegations. The best-performing delegates may receive awards. The UNA of Bulgaria supports students and universities in the organization of UN models, by offering topics, resources, and expertise.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Celebrating important days from the UN calendar is a good opportunity to educate the Bulgarian public on issues that require mobilizing political will and civic activity, such as addressing global problems and commemorating the achievements of humanity. The themes of the international days are always related to the main areas of action of the UN, namely maintaining international peace and security, promoting sustainable development, protecting human rights, and ensuring international law and humanitarian actions.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
