Conference

Without a doubt, the conference will be the most exciting part of the UNISCA course for most participants. Without a doubt, the conference will be the most exciting part of the UNISCA course for most participants. Over 320 students from all over the world will come to Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, assume the positions of world leaders, and discuss global problems, like the reform of the UN Security Council, the role of women in development and the peace process in the Middle East. The conference will be completely in English.

Participants will represent a UN member state or a UN recognised organisation at the conference. They will have to find solutions for problems derived from the UN agenda, taking into account the perspectives of the state or organisation they are representing. Participants engage in both informal lobbying sessions and formal debate sessions. These sessions will take place in special forums which have their counterparts in the real world (e.g. there will be a simulated Security Council). The debates will be chaired by selected students.

When you register, you can specify your preferences concerning the country or organisation you wish to represent and the forum you would like to attend. Additional information concerning these forums and concerning the issues each of these forums will try to tackle, will be sent to you after you have filled out the indicated that you are interested in participating in the project by sending UNISCA an e-mail or by filling out the information request .

If you have participated in a Model United Nations conference before, we strongly encourage you to apply for a position as chairperson. You will preside the forum of your choice and maintain order during the conference. If you are interested, please contact us.

We've finally got some of last years pictures for you to see. We are still working on a new website, and they will be integrated in this new site. However, if you just can't wait, there are a few in this directory .
