13TH MODEL UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE

Auditorium Mahatma Gandhi Institute, Moka, Mauritius
12 June 2009
Dear Delegate,
Merged Resolution and Preparation for Conference
A copy of 75 merged Resolutions will be made accessible to you on https://ministry-education.gov.mu. by Wednesday 8 July 2009.
You must now embark on an intensive preparation, which will empower you to take active part in the deliberations both at your respective Commission and at the General Assembly levels.
Ascertain that you obtain copies of the Resolution you will have to discuss and become conversant with the ‘Special Rules of Parliamentary Procedure’ (pages 19-26 of Handbook already available on website). Also get to understand fully the criteria of assessment for Best Delegates and Best Delegations (equally available on website).
Remember that on Day 1 (Monday 27 July 2009) registration starts at 08 00 hrs and lateness will be considered as most undiplomatic.
On Saturday 24 July (Pre-Conference Day) the whole organizing team, the Secretary General and the Assistant Secretary General, the Security Officers, the Chairpersons should be present at the MGI Auditorium as from noon.
Your 2nd Term school holidays this year are special as they begin with a unique educational experience which the Model United Nations Conference indeed is!
Good luck! See you soon!
Regards.
Narain Dabee
