MUNWar 2024

What if an independent Kurdish State was created ?

That is the question you will have to answer during the second edition of the Model United Nations Wargame. 

What is the MUNWar ? 

MUNWar is an event that aims to simulate a geopolitical scenario for 3 days and will gather university from all Europe, all passionate about international relations and coming from many French and international universities.

This second edition will allow students to face, in conditions designed to simulate reality as closely as possible, a major and plausible challenge of the near future: The Creation of an Independent Kurdish State

MUNWar will fuse two concepts: 

• The MUN
• The wargame

In addition to participants who will embody the role of diplomats, others will be playing the role of miliary officials in a campaign. Through the intermediary of the board on which the sides will move their pieces, the diplomats will quickly see the actual (simulated) consequences of their negotiations, allowing them to concretely experience the ever-changing nature of geopolitics, especially during a crisis. This event will give participants to approach a crisis simulation in a very comprehensive manner, taking into account not only the diplomatic arena but also the battlefield itself.

The last aspect of geopolitics that is usually overlooked by traditional MUNs will also be taken into account: government representatives. The latter will be responsible for processing the information transmitted to them by diplomats and military officials and giving them their orders according to the strategy they deem most appropriate to achieve their objectives. Through this component, participants will get to grasp in a much more tangible way compare to a classic MUN, the responsibility to their government as well as the subordination to it, which is what the real job of a diplomat implies.

This professional crisis-management training will be particularly beneficial to students who are seriously considering a career in one of the three domains present in the simulation and may even discover unsuspected talents.
