JUNES Delegate
junes@mun-uzh.org
Student of Sociology, Political Science and Japanese (BA) at the UZH since 2010.
"I joined the MUN Team in the first couple of weeks of my first semester and it captured me from the very start. Although political science is only my minor subject, I have always found the workings of diplomacy a fascinating process. It’s not only about being a good speaker or engaging your opponents in compromises, but also about strategy and susceptibility to negotiations. On top of the interesting debates, MUN also gives you the chance to meet a lot of great people, in- and outside of our team. Each conference is unique and a very enriching experience. I am the JUNES Delegate of our team. JUNES is the Swiss MUN roof-association. In each team there is a member designated to be part of the JUNES board. Their main task is to inform students about the UN activities and resolutions, organizing conferences, forums and workshops. I am looking forward to work together with the other teams of Switzerland and to make the JUNES activities popular amongst our members!"
