BALMUN 2021
Mobilizing mankind to manage climate change
Dear followers and friends!
Due to the insecurity caused by the pandemic, and also because the final exams were shifted in MV, we will definitely hold an online conference.
We will use MUN.World software that was developed and used by BERMUN.
Our own participants of BERMUN 2020 had great experiences with the possibilities the software created.
We can already announce great guest speakers. The keynote speaker, Frans Timmermans, will be broadcasted from Brussels. We will have experts from Africa and the United States speaking. The Consule General of the US in Hamburg, Darion Akins, is planning on a speech. We hope to have the support of Rostock University as well as of the KAS and the IOW.
Do not hesitate and apply for this year's conference!
Let us work together for global solutions!
