Functions as Faculty Advisor: I'm responsible for the organization of the project NMUN, the tutorial and to advise the delegation (Mentor for Head Delegate and Finance)

What did I learn from participating in NMUN 2011? I learned how to organize, to work closely as a diverse group, how the UN works and what the work of a diplomat might really be. NMUN was one of my greatest experience, because I could enhance my knowledge but also grow as a person.

I enjoyed being a delegate and now I want to share my knowlegde and experiences with the upcoming delegation. I could not imagine that the project would be over after New York - the challenges, experience and the fun .. That's why I wanted to be a part of NMUN 2012.
