We are delighted to open the applications for the third edition of BMUN!This year, students from and outside Beacon School may choose to represent delegations or press in the following committees:UNHCR — The Armenian GenocideThis committee will discuss the Armenian Genocide, which took place mainly between 1915 and 1917 in the Ottoman Empire. Delegates will address issues such as historical recognition, humanitarian consequences, displacement, and the protection of victims’ rights and their descendants.HUNSC — The Berlin Blockade (1948)This historical committee will focus on the Berlin Blockade, one of the first major confrontations of the Cold War. Delegates will represent key actors from the period and address the crisis caused by the Soviet blockade of land access to West Berlin, while attempting to prevent a military escalation.Special Committee — The Infinity Accord: Council for the Greater Good (MCU)This special committee is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Delegates will take on the roles of characters or organizations from the MCU and face a fictional crisis involving global or universal security and the balance of power. It is a more creative and dynamic committee, where alliances and decisions can directly influence the development of the crisis.Junior ECOSOC — The Humanitarian Crisis in Afghanistan: Building Feasible Solutions for Education, Food Security and HealthcareThis committee will focus on the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan. Delegates will discuss practical solutions to challenges such as access to education, food insecurity, and limited healthcare, while considering the country’s political and economic constraints.UNSC — Addressing the Escalation of the M23 Conflict in Eastern DRC and Preventing Regional DestabilizationThis committee will address the escalation of the conflict involving the M23 rebel group in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.
