MUN-information and networking-

in Japan, many students enjoyed MUN.
the number is about 1300 people.

but much large numbers of people enjoyed in Europe, America and Australia.
in Continental Countries, there is large MUN network.
EMUNNET - European Model United Nations Network
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=11745333542

they shared information on MUN beyond borders, through newsletter.
(I attached it at bottom)
it's so great opportunity to know each other.

in Asian Pacific, I created Asia-Pacific Model United Nations Network.
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=80860146194&ref=ts
in Asian Nation, we need to know each other more and more.
MUN can play the central role to do as well as to understand the difference of each context(Same time!).

and more, these networking helps each career.
in Professional NGO or UN, we did same thing.
GCAP, Global Call against Poverty is networking of NGO against Poverty.
the function is quite similar.

Youth CAN Change the world if they hope so and understand the real value.

thanks,
Yoichi

- ZAGIMUN 2010 conference big success. On the 18th of October the 3rd edition of the ZAGIMUN conference took place. Three councils were simulated and the outcome was very positive. Various resolutions on the debated topics were written and the participants had to come up with prompt solutions to an unexpected crisis on the Crimean Peninsula. In addition guest speakers gave lectures to complement the discussion in the councils and an extensive social program with parties and a gala dinner completed this memorable edition of the ZAGIMUN conference.

- EMUNNET Member Representatives met to elaborate and further work on projects. Between the 24th and 28th of October 2009 various Member Representatives of the EMUNNET met in Zagreb to further work and elaborate on current EMUNNET Projects. The projects have officially been divided and some already partially implemented. The following projects are almost completed: ‘EMUNNET Rules of Procedures’, ‘The UN-System project’ and the establishment of a ‘Topic and Council Database’. The rest of the projects will hopefully be finalized and implemented between December 2009 and spring 2010.
