Aberystwyth Model United Nations Society

Hey all,

Just a quick email to let you know that the next topic for discussion in MUN is non-proliferation. We’ll be discussing this as the Security Council, so if you wish to grab a veto-weilding nation ( i.e. Russia, US, France, UK & China), book your delegation on our website (abermun.wordpress.com).

Hi all!

I’d like to thank all of you who attended our weekend training workshop and conference – the day was a big success and we had a lot of fun. We gained a bit of experience in arranging conferences, and we will be hosting more, larger conferences as the year goes on.

However, next Monday it’s time for our next meeting. The topic for discussion is Holocaust Denial (if the nations of Israel and Iran find consensus, I shall reward them with a cookie each!). This topic has in fact been addressed by the General Assembly only recently, so it will be interesting to see if we will reach the same conclusion as the real UN! As usual, we’ll be meeting at 6PM in the Library Seminar Room of the Hugh Owen Library.
