Dear Delegates and MUN Advisors,
It is our absolute pleasure to welcome you to the 8th session of Platon School Model United Nations (PS-MUN) Conference taking place from Friday March 2nd to Sunday March 4th 2018 on the premises of Platon IB World School in Athens, Greece.
Since its inception in 2011, PS-MUN has brought together approximately 3500 motivated delegates from all over the world with rich and diverse cultural backgrounds and has justly earned a well-respected and high standing reputation for its conferences.
We welcome newcoming and veteran students alike, from all over Greece, Europe, America and the Middle East, to engage in an exciting and enlightening educational experience.
Our mission is to foster problem-solving skills, allow new students to be inspired, to gain a first taste of organized debate and provide more experienced students the opportunity to not only hone their debating and public speaking skills but to master the art of UN Diplomacy.
By participating in PS-MUN, delegates will once again bare witness to and participate in thought-provoking, innovative debates with our 4 General Assembly Committees (Disarmament & International Security, Social Humanitarian & Cultural, Special Political & Decolonization and Legal) and 6 Specialized Agencies (ECOSOC, Environmental Commission, ICJ, Security Council, the G20 and Special Conference).
Suffice it to say, Education has played a vital role in shaping tomorrow’s leaders. As such, the acquisition of knowledge has shown that we can actively achieve and meet the challenges that bring about positive changes in an increasingly complicated world.
Therefore, we have decided to dealwith the important issue of Education at PS-MUN this year. Our Special Conference topic is: “FOCUS ON GLOBAL EDUCATION”.
The School Registration (Form I) has officially opened as of the 4th of September, 2017 and the deadline has been set for the 15th of December, 2017. We strongly encourage delegations to apply in advance, as applications completed well before the deadline will receive prior consideration for acceptance and country assignments.
PS-MUN continues with its commitment to strive for an unparalleled, educational experience that all participating delegates from all corners of the earth will not soon forget and will cherish for years to come.
For further information, please do not hesitate contacting us at info@ps-mun.gr , as it is our sincerest hope that you will consider joining us this forthcoming March.
Sincerely yours,
Lilly Nikolopoulou
