GerMUN 2012

The German Model United Nations is an annual Conference set up to prepare students for other worldwide Model UNs, such as the NMUN in New York.

GerMUN is one of the oldest Model UN Conferences in Germany on an academic level, celebrating its 20th birthday in 2012. It is organized in rotation by the Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, the Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg and the University of Bonn.

All universities have a long expierence with Model UN, which is passed on every year to a new generation of tutors, of which most has already served as staff at the NMUN in New York and other conferences. Hence GerMUN provides delegates with sophisticated staff and sees its main task in a qualitative and time-consuming Conference, expecting in return a thorough preparation from all Delegates.

The next conference will take place from February 29 – March 4 in Weimar. Please go to “Weimar 2012” or contact us for further information.

About GerMUN

GerMUN first took place in 1992 in Bad Honnef. Ever since, the location has been changed various times, currently interchangeably held in Berlin and Weimar.

GerMUN consists of up to three committees: the Security Council, the Economic and Social Council, and the General Assembly. Each committee has three topics (SC usually two topics). Background guides and rules of procedure will be available for registered Delegations.

Please note that GerMUN does not use the Harvard Model UN rules, hence (e.g.) yielding the time to the chair is not possible.
