How to solve hunger, nukes and flood, Model UN-style

Ready for a funny video? Model UN Style is a Gangnam style parody. Those who have never been to MUN might find it funny and weird, but those who have been to MUN will find joy.

This weekend (February 22-23, 2014) University of Calgary celebrated its 40th Model United Nations conference with well over 300 high school students from across Calgary.

This conference is a simulation of United Nations. There are three General Assembly Committees (DISEC, ECOFIN and SOCHUM) along with Security Council, Human Rights Council and NATO. Althoguh NATO is not an official part of UN it is very convenient to hold its simulation when all the country delegates are meeting for UN anyways.

Besides the fun, Model UN looks great on resumes and gives you the  experience that will go a long way.
