AUCMUN

I april 2022 rejser en god delegation fra ATU | Midt og ATU | Syd for 1. gang til Amsterdam for at deltage i Amsterdam University College Model United Nations.

Vi glæder os.

Amsterdam University College Model United Nations
AUCMUN was founded in order to facilitate student involvement with world issues, the United Nations, and diplomacy. We provide this opportunity to university students by organizing a yearly conference to help them foster an understanding of foreign affairs while stimulating self-growth and -development. Although it is an Amsterdam University College-related event, our goal is not only to attract AUC students but a larger international network of MUN-enthusiasts and provide a rich experience for them over a weekend. In addition to participating in the conferences, the attendees will have the chance to attend exciting activities such as a boat gala.
 
This year’s slogan is ‘Minds in Motion', which refers to all the great minds that will be working together during the event but can also be understood as life and action starting again after the pandemic. The event will take place in AUC’s Academic Building from the 8th to 10th April 2022 and is expected to gather up to 300 people!

Amsterdam
The historic city of Amsterdam provides the perfect backdrop for a global discussion. Its iconic canals and narrow houses are only part of the cultural heart of the Dutch capital. It harbors a rich history, reflected in the architecture and many museums. The city has an international fit, and today is proud to hold over 180 different nationalities. Amsterdam is also one of the Netherlands’ prime student cities, with a young and engaged population, and two top research universities.

Amsterdam University College
Amsterdam University College is a Liberal Arts and Sciences College with a strong international focus. It was created by the two well-established Amsterdam universities: the University of Amsterdam and the Vrije Universiteit. AUC meets the current global need for a generation that can solve interdisciplinary problems, and accommodates students from all backgrounds. AUC has around 900 students, half of whom are international, and forms a diverse community of honors students in Amsterdam. The campus is located on Science Park, and is only an 8 minute train ride or 20 minute bike ride away from the city center!
 
Model United Nations
MUN is a simulation of the real deal, the United Nations and its numerous organs. MUN conferences typically consist of multiple committees that address topics which could also be discussed at the UN. Participants (a.k.a. ‘delegates’) take on the roles of different countries and defend their viewpoint in the committee debates. Together, within the committee the goal is to formulate a resolution for a plan of action, as a result of negotiations and debate. MUN conferences help delegates develop public speaking, negotiating and debating skills.
 
There is also a less academic side to MUN conferences, as many conferences also organize social events including galas, borrels etcetera, so there are plenty of opportunities for you to bond and network with your fellow delegates.

 

En tidligere ATU-delegation fortæller om at være med til et internationalt Model United Nations:

"Verden er meget større, end vi tror.Vi ændrer måske ikke verden på én dag, men det vigtigste er, at vi finder vores måde at forbedre den på."

"Hvor er det fedt, at man kan tage afsted på en mega hyggelig tur og samtidig få faglig udfordring og få sparring med andre unge om geopolitiske problemstillinger."
 
 
"MUN er læring på doping. Med lidt god vilje går man ud af det gladere, klogere og med håb for fremtiden, dog med massivt søvnunderskud."
 

About AUCMUN

AUCMUN is a student-run organization in charge of organizing Amsterdam University College’s very own Model United Nations. We provide a platform for university students from around the world to debate and discuss dire issues. Typically, AUCMUN hosts 250 delegates, 24 chairs, and 8 backroom staff members, representing more than 60 nationalities. With the pandemic, the 6th edition of AUCMUN will take place in person from April 8th to April 10th 2022, where we will be expecting to make AUCMUN even greater!
