Sunday – 30 April 2017
The
morning started with a training by Mr Erik Leiden, in which he gave us an introduction
to the UN and its procedures. He discussed the skills and the knowledge we
needed to make the most of the committee sessions.
Soon
after, in the Opening Plenary, we were briefed about what we would be doing in
the MUN. We then dispersed to our respective committees (General Assemblies and Security Councils) for the delegates' opening speeches.
The
topic, that all the committees were working on this year, was the United
Nations' Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. There are 17 SDGs -- ICT, Youth
Development, Gender Equality among others.
What
we liked best was Mr Erik’s outstanding presentation. It was filled with
activities and taught us all we needed to participate in our very first MUN.
