In accordance with the upcoming Rio+20 Summit, which will be the milestone in international community’s devotion toward addressing the most urgent and important issues of sustainable development and green economy, the topic “SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: Advancing human progress in harmony with nature” was selected to be the general topic of the Global Model UN. Each team during the Conference is really international – MUNRFE members represent different countries (Hungary, Burkina Faso and Egypt) and have 3 teammates from different parts of the world. Each country had to choose a Head Delegate – the highest authority over the decision-making process of the delegation, who needs to have a thorough understanding of the procedural rules, all topics under discussion in all the committees of the UN GA and who will be responsible for coordinating the lobbying efforts of their delegations. Head delegates will have to attend special meetings with the GA Officials before each debates session.
In the team of Arab Republic of Egypt Andrey Kozinets was unanimously elected as a Head delegate who will be also the main liaison between the Conference Officials and the respective delegation. This conference will have as much realistic procedural rule and code of conduct as possible and delegates will have a great opportunity to dive into the atmosphere of real UN work. According to the latest information the Mayor of Inchon has already welcomed participants of the GMUN 2011, and moreover, the UN Secretary General, Mr. Ban Ki-Moon will address a speech for delegates tomorrow (August, 11).
