About

ThracingOnMIC is back in 2023!

Dear Delegates,

it is an honor to welcome you back for another unique experience at our annually conference. Thracing on MIC (Model International Crises) is a simulation conference on international organizations and crises, which is going to take place in the city of Komotini from the 6th to the 10th of December 2023.

The idea of the conference and the association itself was initiated by some students, who, driven by their love for diplomacy and international law, but also for Komotini itself, decided to create a group for fellow students with common interests.    

To give you a taste of the academic background of Thracing on MIC, during the days of the conference, participating delegates are invited to play the role of a representative of a state entity in international committees and to manage a simulated crisis of international scope, using the rules of international law and their diplomatic skills. More specifically, an international crisis environment will be created, evolving in real time, which will be examined by each of the five committees to be simulated to the extent and from the point of view that its jurisdiction allows it. However, the most vital and fascinating characteristic of the conference that sets us apart from other similar ones are the crisis scenarios that occur in real-time during the days of the conference.

The General Topic of the Conference: A Changing World: Navigating Diplomatic Relations in the Evolving International Landscape.

Applications's fee is 65€.  

We are looking forward to see you in Komotini in December!

NATO’s fundamental goal is to safeguard the Allies’ freedom and security by political and military means. NATO remains the principal security instrument of the transatlantic community and expression of its common democratic values. It is the practical means through which the security of North America and Europe are permanently tied together. NATO enlargement has furthered the U.S. goal of a Europe whole, free, and at peace.

    About the committee

    The Council is an essential EU decision-maker. It negotiates and adopts legislative acts in most cases together with the European Parliament through the ordinary legislative procedure, also known as 'codecision'. Codecision is used for policy areas where the EU has exclusive or shared competence with the member states. In these cases, the Council legislates on the basis of proposals submitted by the European Commission.
