WorldMUN Heidelberg
Description
We are the Delegation of the University of Heidelberg to the Harvard World Model United Nations Conferences, and hosts of Heidelberg National MUN. The WorldMUN Heidelberg e.V. understands itself as an initiator into the world of international diplomacy. It is run by a team of students from various academic disciplines with the intent of encouraging a critical, creative and open-minded approach to international issues. As an extra-curricular forum is it also unique in that it fosters language and leadership skills needed in any leading profession (> Philosophy). For five years now substantial and successful delegations have participated at the Harvard WorldMUN conferences in Cambridge (UK), Athens, Istanbul and Belo Horizonte (Brazil) (> History). We felt that, by stepping in as the host-unviversity in 2003, it was time to return some of the dedication and expertise that has always made these meetings such a personally and academically valuable experience.

Harvard World Model United Nations 2017 is over. What have got? Natalie Stasiewicz is now fellow of The Resolution Project with her social venture IMPaCT, Matthias Hohmann won a diplomacy award, and the entire delegation was part of a great conference. Wow. Also: our friends from MUN Mannheim e.V. were best German university delegation (congrats, guys!), and Be.Boosted established itself as the German MUN Society Belgium (who stormed the conference once again, congrats to both of you!). See you all at the farewell party!

European Commission
From MUN to UN: Last Saturday - during the opening ceremony of the 2017 Heidelberg National MUN - Mr. Makipaa provided us with some insights into the work of the European Commission at the UN Good Offices in Cyprus. How relevant the Cyprus topic remains can be seen quite impressively by this week's media coverage about the reunification talks in Geneva.
