Model UN

We are 20 motivated students, sharing seven nationalities but all together representing one interesting nation in selected UN committees: The Republic of Cameroon!

After two successful participations of ESB Business School at the National Model United Nations (NMUN), we are happy to join in once again in 2011 and we will do our utmost to be as successful as the former delegations. The main event will take place at the Marriott Hotel at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City in April 19-23, 2011. Together with more than 4,000 students from all over the world we will conduct a high-profile simulation of the United Nations as junior diplomats.

The National Model United Nations in New York is the world's largest and most prestigious UN simulation and has been held each spring since 1946. More than 5,000 college students from all over the world participate annually. Furthermore, the NMUN in New York is something special, since opening and closing ceremonies take place at the official UN Headquarters.

During a simulated UN session, participants are given the opportunity to represent dynamic points of view. This includes, for example, the US position on climate change or the Saudi Arabian attitude towards religious freedom and the freedom of press.

The delegates of the ESB Business School are highly motivated and excited about their participation at NMUN, and expect to obtain invaluable experience and achievement. Besides, the delegation organizes a lot of events on and outside campus to support the social organization “Hupjefi” in Cameroon. These events include the “Blood drive”, “Glühwein sales” and the legendary “Campus-Olympiade”.
