RiMUN is powered by United Netherlands

What

RiMUN distinguishes itself by its exceptional quality in content and committee topics, offering delegates real diplomatic challenges involving negotiation, debate and networking.

The success of this conference can be guaranteed by United Netherlands due to its ample expertise, acquired from years of experience in organizing outstanding MUN conferences.

In 2009, United Netherlands provided the ultimate proof of its capabilities by organizing the very successful WorldMUN conference in The Hague, which drew more than 2500 participants from all over the world.

Participation

As a delegate at RiMUN 2010 you will take part in a highly professional and international conference consisting of  stimulating lectures, recognized keynote speakers and an amazing social package.

This year’s conference will offer delegates the opportunity to participate in a variety of intensive activities enabling participants to develop expertise in public speaking, negotiation, team work and the realistic representation of the interest of the countries assigned to them.

The Radboud international Model United Nations is of great value to experienced MUNers but also enthusiastically welcomes all of those new to the Model United Nations concept.
