LUNYA (Lithuanian United Nations Youth Association) will be hosting its second international Model UN this year – Baltic MUN. LUNYA is the official youth wing of the UNA-Lithuania and works in cooperation with Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas, Lithuania.
This an excellent opportunity for you to register to represent a delegation and be part of this awesome event! Registration to the event is free! In the upcoming months, LUNYA will also be sharing information about cheap accommodation and places to eat in Kaunas.
For those who don’t know, Model UN is an educational simulation and academic competition in which students can learn about diplomacy, international relations, and the United Nations. MUN involves and teaches researching, public speaking, debating, and writing skills, in addition to critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership abilities.
The theme of this year’s BMUN is “Empowering Women.” This theme was inspired by the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles. The 7 principles tackle pertinent issues such as gender equality and nondiscrimination in the work force; ensuring the health, safety and well-being of all women; promoting education, training and professional development for women; and more. BMUN organizers believe that it is important now more than ever for the global community to continue to bridge gender gaps and create equal access opportunities.
