EagleMUNC VII took place on March 22nd-24th, 2019. Nearly 700 students attended the conference, held at the Westin Copley Place in the heart of downtown Boston.
The conference opened with keynote speakers Diego Arria, former Ambassador from Venezuela to the United Nations — who developed the “Arria-Formula Meeting” used in the UN Security Council — and former Connecticut Governor Dan Malloy.
The conference featured a number of exciting and intriguing committees, as well as their 40-hour simulation. The Time Capsule Thematic committee explored how the press’ perspective has changed through time. The Pirate Republic explored the Pirate Islands in the Bahamas after the War of the Spanish. Other more traditional committees included the United Nations Security Council and the African Union. And finally, in the spirit of EagleMUNC’s passion for crisis, they held several crisis committees including Cuba: The Special Period 1990s which had continuous exciting developments.
Here’s what EagleMUNC VII Secretary-General Andres Garcia Angulo had to say about the conference:
