"Finding Paths Through an Age of Uncertainty"

MAMUN is back in 2023!

Exciting committees, open bar socials, catering - and all this in Germany's largest baroque palace. Join us in Mannheim in April for MAMUN 2023.

 

In April 2022 - after the Covid-19 break - we revived our MUN conference in Mannheim. We were the largest regional MUN conference in Germany and won the support of a major political sponsor.

The world has changed drastically this year and today more than ever we face a new age of uncertainty. As old conventions are broken, long-held truths are beginning to waver. For MUN societies around the world, these new challenges are also an opportunity to explore new paths and solutions. In the midst of these turbulent times and in the spirit of diplomacy, we would like to invite you to MAMUN 2023!

In addition to thought-provoking debates and discussions in our seven committees, we've got a fantastic social program to keep the excitement level high.

Start the party on Friday evening with an open-air bash in the magnificent courtyard of the Mannheim Palace. On Saturday, get ready for an upscale diplomatic ball in the palace itself. 

We'll also provide two meals and two dinners throughout the weekend, plus snacks and coffee each morning. And with an open bar at both socials, the fun never stops. Don't miss this opportunity to network, make friends, and have a fantastic time. Register now for a weekend you'll never forget!

    Topic

    The Yemeni Civil War

    About the committee

    The Arab league was formed in March 1945 as an outgrowth of the Pan-Arabist ideology; the idea that Arab Citizens are one people divided among several states with history, language, culture, and socio-economic interests propelling them to forge one great Arab Nation. However, because of present inter-Arab political and economic rivalries, the League has generally been unable to pursue a consistent agenda on various issues. This committee is therefore designed to be an advanced committee.

    Russian and Chinese Military Influence in Conflicts on the African Continent

    About the committee

    The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is a political and military alliance. The alliance is characterized by the principle of collective defense which means that an attack against one member state will be considered as an attack against all member states. NATO takes decisions by consensus so delegates are required to find solutions which all the member states can agree on.

    Topic

    A Burning Cedar Tree: The Lebanese Civil War of 1980

    About the committee

    Crisis is by far one of the most unpredictable committees of Model United Nations – and thereby one of the most realistic ones! Not only do delegates take on the role of a real-life counterpart -whether it be a politician, a diplomat or a news reporter- but the whole procedure of the committee is extremely close to reality with intrusive behind-the-scenes and non-podium politics elements. Crisis is the committee to cut out the fanciness and to act with ruthlessness to maximize your own outcome in the solution to the emergency on the table. As delegates have the ability to take actions in real time that will affect the flow of debate and events during the committee, this committee is conceptualized to be an advanced-level committee.
