National Model United Nations students visit the Embassy

Berlin, 2 March 2011. The Embassy of the Republic of South Africa hosted a group of ten students from the Association Model United Nations Bern (MUN Bern) of the University of Bern. The students will simulate the roles of diplomats from the Republic of South Africa at the National Model United Nations (NMUN) conference in New York in April 2011. For this they prepared in great detail and analyzed South Africa from various perspectives. Some questions remained though and the students therefore received a presentation from four diplomats of the Embassy to be even better prepared for their conference in New York. In the presentation they learnt more about the economic and social situation in South Africa and the influence South Africa`s history has on the current state of affairs and policies. Further the role of South Africa in the African Union and amongst the Southern African states (SADC) was discussed.

After the briefing the students expressed their gratitude and felt more prepared for the conference in New York.
