Our school for the first time will participate in the Model United Nations conference organized at The British School of Warsaw. Our team consists of Adam Koscielak, Klaudia Niwecka, Jake Sacawa and Me - Jan Gorczynski. I was chosen to be the leader of the team and will be assigned for the Security Council. I really wanted our school to take part in the WrocMUN, however, we have gotten organized a little bit to late. I have already sent the Application Form (deadline is on 14 February). Participating in the MUN helps students understanding the situation in the world.
Participating in MUN is engaging myself with issues of global importance, as we know Model United Nations concerns problems of many countries, delegates fill the roles of:
- Security Council - Me
- Disarmament Committee - Adam Koscielak
- Environmental and Social Committee - Klaudia Niwecka
1.Through participating in MUN I consider ethical implications of my actions. By reason of that activity I will understand how the world is functioning and what consequences can some actions bring.
I am really satisfied that we have created a team and hope to achieve something there. Of course there are competitive delegates, but I think we might play an important part. I am going there with a certain purpose and I understand why conferences like MUN are significant - they help understanding the current situation in the world.
2.
Thanks to this activity I will hopefully increase awareness of my own strengths and areas for growth, because I have participated in the conference only once so far. I think that I could do real good and possibly I will use the skill obtained thanks to MUN in the future. Definitely it will help me to see whether I am able to make good speeches and talk to a big group of people. I think that it also teaches how to deal with stress and it is very important in everyone's lives.
3.
By that activity I will engage myself with issues of global importance. As we know Model United Nations concern problems of global importance, for instance Korean Conflict and participating in the conference is a great opportunity to become a part of events. MUN's aim is to reproduce the real meeting of countries' statesmen and it helps understanding not only the background of the conflicts but also shows solutions that delegates have to find during the conference. As a Security Council deputy I will be forced to think about country's safety and prevention of future conflicts.
