Deadline: 20 December 2013
Open to: every undergraduate student fluent in English
Venue: 7-9 February 2014 in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria

Description

The Blagoevgrad International Model United Nations (BLIMUN) is an international, university-level simulation organized by the Model United Nations Club of the American University in Bulgaria.

The AUBG MUN Club holds workshops, invites guest lecturers to the campus of the American University, and prepares other events alike, thus allowing members and participants to meet and develop an appreciation of contemporary problems affecting the lives of today’s global society. The underpinning objective of the work is to promote the values of the United Nations by inspiring students to be responsive to the needs of societies worldwide.

It was recognized by the Student Government of AUBG years ago, and ever since has existed as one of the most active student clubs in Bulgaria. The club organizes political and social debates imitating the procedures of the United Nations Organization, the European Union, and other international organizations. Hence, it strives to raise awareness on important issues of international relations in the AUBG community. The club also seeks national and international recognition from other venerable Model UN organizations. In structural terms, the AUBG Model United Nations Club is organized around an Executive Committee, with the work divided amongst Supporting Bureaus. The main goal of the club is to organize successfully the annual BLIMUN conference.

There will be two UN committees simulated at BLIMUN 2014:

  1. The Security Council (SC). Topic: Egyptian Crisis.
  2. The General Assembly. Topic: Eradicating extreme poverty and hunger.

  1. If you are a fan of shooting games, then you are in luck as there are plenty of free shooting
    games. The process of having fun basically boils down to either using the speedy off-roader
    to dodge incoming fire and take over pylons; blasting things
    down with a tank, or taking out multiple opponents with a ground-to-ground missile launcher.
    If the person leaves positive feedback, you get your points and
    increase your feedback score, if they leave neutral, you
    get the points, but lose some feedback score, and if they
    leave negative feedback, you do not get any points, and lose feedback.

  2. For instance, “That sounds like an interesting line of work.

    In fact, the enormous success of the show led Fox to extend its run from
    the previously planned 13 episodes to a full season. It is the job of a
    construction engineer to draft and design structures and show others how to build them.

  3. Overall, medical marijuana has a positive effect
    on society, because it gives doctors another tool for helping
    patients. The Garden State of New Jersey is another state
    that did not allow Medical Marijuana to become legal
    until early 2010. Chosen by its flavor, discharge and characteristics of growth.
