The Second annual New York University Model United Nations Conference (NYUMUNC) opened today with – delegates and 15 different schools represented in the heart of downtown Manhattan. NYUMUNC, the multi-committee crisis simulation conference, prides itself for its complex crisis administration in operating all nine committees simultaneously by the same “conference world” timeline. Thus, when one committee announces a press release or takes military action, other committees are usually aware and can immediately produce a response in real time.
This year’s crisis is centered on the instability and political crisis in Nigeria. We look forward to seeing productive and much heated debate throughout the following days.
