The Zagreb International Model United Nations
October 18-24, 2009

Welcome to ZAGIMUN!

Dear Diplomats,

Yes, Diplomats – after two very successful conferences, the Zagreb International Model United Nations is on the eve of training more young ambassadors and diplomats during the third annual conference and you are courteously invited to make the difference with us this year.

Model United Nations – or MUN for short – gives students from around the world the opportunity to step into the shoes of a diplomat. During the week-long conference, they will have to address world problems, representing a world nation, a non-governmental organization or making the difference as members of the world press, influencing public opinion.

ZAGIMUN will embark, for the third year in a row, on a journey to let students experience the art of diplomacy, negotiation and enhance public speaking and debating skills. Every participant to the conference will discuss issues which are hotly debated in world politics and are currently on the political agenda of many governments around the world. Perhaps more importantly, however, ZAGIMUN has become a week of socializing, meeting new friends with the same interests and the return of old friends whom once again meet with the aim of solving some of the largest and most complex issues of our era.

As such, we are honored to be able to invite you to the third edition of the Zagreb International Model United Nations, which will be held in Croatia’s capital Zagreb, from 18 to 24 October 2009. All those interested in international affairs, politics and diplomacy, but also those interested in experiencing life as a reporter of world news are invited to sign up for the conference. Personal experience has taught us that whether you are an experienced MUNer, or completely new to this family, ZAGIMUN will certainly provide you with the perfect mixture between heated debates and Balkan culture.

We hope to be able to welcome you to Zagreb in October!

Sincerely yours,

Agnes Venema & Kaspar Paur
