WCDMUN2011-12 |
WCD
MUN2011 is an MUN conference held in Wesley College Dublin every year. This year WCDMUN will take place on February 24th and 25th 2012 . All Irish and international schools are welcome to attend. Further information can be received by e-mailing info@wcdmun.com
MUN is the all-rounder of the extra-curricular
activities. This student-led and student-run activity is communicating,
researching, persuading and debating as well as public speaking and
listening to others and if you’re not exhausted after that, it is
socialising and competing with other individuals, groups and schools.
Students who take on the challenge of MUN will find it rewarding in
terms of the skills it can help them develop as well as the fun they can
have in the process.
WCDMUN began in 2008. Now in its 5th year,
WCDMUN2012 is growing to accommodate more delegates over 2 days. Affectionately known as "wickedMUN," WCDMUN offers a valuable introduction to MUN for first-time delegates as well as allowing those with experience the opportunity and forum to demonstrate their negotiation and political skills.
Above
all, WCDMUN is a friendly conference with an emphasis on building
relationships and striving for consensus. All delegates are encouraged
to make it a priority to sort out the world’s problems (rather than add
to them) in the spirit of cooperation and team building. After all, it
is the United Nations that we are modelling. In terms of competition,
delegates who demonstrate their ability to work with others and pose
realistic and reasoned solutions will find MUN rewarding.
So over to you. Teachers, we really encourage you to bring your delegates to our conference. Students - do the work to prepare and you’ll enjoy this unique way to deepen your knowledge of international affairs and sharpen your political skills. We look forward to hosting you in February.
All information on WCDMUN2012 will become available on this site in November 2011.
