The European Model United Nations (EuroMUN) is an annual simulation of organs of the United Nations and other selected fora of world politics and the biggest of its kind in Continental Europe. The 11th edition was hosted from May 10- May 13, 2018, held in the Maastricht Exhibition and Congress Centre (MECC) in Maastricht, the Netherlands, with more than 550 participants attending. EuroMUN is supported by NATO, the EU Parliament and the United Nations in Brussels. Since the first conference was organized by a group of ambitious international students in 2008, EuroMUN has grown to be Europe's premier Model UN conference. It is EuroMUN's mission to serve as a forum for a new generation of leaders in the international sphere, to foster dialogue between students from all over the globe, and to encourage critical thinking in a professional yet socially stimulating setting. MUNs engage with world affairs but are not reserved for students of political sciences since international relations as such are influenced by many different factors. Students with backgrounds of economics, law, journalism, linguistics, criminology and even the natural sciences may be surprised how multidisciplinary decision-making can be when many interests are involved. Thus EuroMUN caters to 21st century challenges by contributing to connecting and educating young leaders to be adept and versatile. EuroMUN also offers Pre-Programs to the conference, which have taken place in Brussels, the “European Capital”, Berlin and The Hague. It entailed visits to European Institutions and panel discussions by experts working in international institutions.
