2019 AMUN Conference Application
The NMSU Model United Nations Team is excited to host the inaugural Aggie Model United Nations! All NMSU students and Las Cruces area high school students are invited to join and expand their knowledge of international relations and try their hands at diplomacy with members of the team.
Delegates will be tasked to research and craft a brief position paper outlining their country’s stance on the issues that will be addressed in Conference. During the Conference, delegates will simulate a UN committee, delivering speeches on their country’s positions, and working with fellow delegates to write resolutions on real-world problems.
The AMUN Conference will be held on March 15th and 16th at Hardman Jacobs, Room 225.
