The Best Delegate World Tour for 2012-2013

Best Delegate ran a Model UN summer camp in Saudi Arabia and plans more visits to the Islamic world.

Best Delegate will be back on the road again this year! Actually, our focus this year is to have our awesome team of Media Associates provide coverage for the community by writing and posting up guest articles that share a success story, reflect on a valuable experience, or teach the readers something new. Feel free to email your regional Media Associate if you’re interested in submitting a guest article about your team or conference!

That said, we will still be visiting a few conferences this year. One of the themes of this year’s tour is the Rise of Model UN in the Islamic world. We took our first trip to the Middle East when we ran a Model UN summer camp in Saudi Arabia in July. We just returned from our second trip where we delivered presentations at the Qatar Leadership Conference and conducted workshops in Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. Ryan also plans to visit MUNIK in Karachi, Pakistan, in January, and we’re hoping to return to the Gulf region in the Spring. Model UN is definitely growing in the Islamic world and we want to help the activity develop there and share the success stories from the region.

Other highlights on our tour include:

  • Best Delegate’s first visit to Latin America with workshops in Honduras and workshops and blogging in Puerto Rico.
  • Both Ryan and KFC will be at ILMUNC, which may have “championship” implications this year
  • NAIMUN should be a big reunion for us with our YMUNI summer camp participants
  • Coverage of the Southern California high school Model UN circuit as we are now based here

Our Spring schedule is far from set, but we plan to visit a few of the major conferences. Hopefully we’ll get a chance to visit a major THIMUN or THIMUN-affiliated conference, make a return trip to China, or drop by Harvard WorldMUN in Melbourne, Australia. Finally, we’ll conclude the liveblogging portion of the tour in the late Spring and kick off our Best Delegate Academy Model UN summer camps tour around June!
