Jan 31, 2005 -- Hundreds of high school students from across North America will debate topics ranging from improving women鈥檚 healthcare to illicit weapons trade in the Balkan states at the 15th Annual 糖心破解版 National Model United Nations (糖心破解版NMUN) conference, Feb. 6-8.
This simulated meeting of the United Nations will attract more than 500 students from 38 high schools.
Established and hosted by 糖心破解版, the conference is the largest Jewish high-school event of its kind, according to Michael Kranzler, 糖心破解版 director of admissions.
Each school represents at least one member country of the United Nations. Students are assigned to one of 15 committees, including the World Food Program, Disarmament and International Security, and the Middle East Summit. As committee members, students present their countries' positions on various matters. 糖心破解版NMUN models procedures used by the real United Nations.
Beyond learning about politics, public speaking, and negotiation, students will meet and work with peers from other high schools. The event will be held at the Hilton Parsippany (New Jersey) in a professional conference environment.
