Advisor: Alyce Moy Email: alycemoy@gmail.com Tackling the fallout of the debt crisis on the developing world, debating the efficacy of deforestation solutions on national economies, exploring solutions and actions for the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - these are just a few examples of topics that you can explore as a member of the BIF MUN team. Experience policy-making first-hand at MUN conferences, where you can collaborate with others from around the country and the world in committees. Whether holding a trial in a committee session or facing off in a duel with Voldemort, you will have plenty of opportunities to exercise your speaking, debate, and leadership skills throughout the year. Weekly club time will be devoted to diving deeper into international issues as you spend time preparing to represent countries as delegates at regional MUN conferences by honing your research, debate, negotiation, and writing skills. Participating students are required to attend at least three conferences over the course of the year, as well as contribute to club operations. (Registration fees for each conference will be charged separately.) This season, the team expects to send delegates to a number of conferences that would be appropriate to delegates’ experience and grade level including but not limited to: High School - Berkeley Delegate Workshop (Oct.), Stanford MUN (Nov.), Berkeley MUN (Mar.), and a possible travel conference opportunity Middle School - Berkeley Delegate Workshop (Oct.), BIF MUN (Nov.), d.mun (Jan.)Additional costs may be applied through Active during the school year.
