AGS Model United Nations Team Wins Two Awards at Paris Conference |

This is the fourth conference in the MUN program that AGS started in 2012 as a component of its Master’s in International Relations and Diplomacy. Previous conferences included the Catalonian MUN conference in Barcelona and the London Model United Nations conference, where AGS delegates also won awards. |
Another conference - and another success - for the AGS Model United Nations team. Six AGS students participated in the Paris International MUN conference(PIMUN) on May 31-June 2, along with around 600 other students from around the world. Thanks to all of the research and preparation work that the team had done under the coordination of Master's candidates Christine Brownfield and Manuel Navarro (AGS Class of 2014), the AGS team received two of the conference Best delegate awards, which are the top awards in each committee : Christine Brownfield was nominated Best Delegate for her work in the First Committee of the General Assembly (Disarmament and International Security - DISEC), and Tim Francis was nominated Best Delegate for his work in the International Atomic Energy Agency Committee (IAEA).

From current issues in the Middle East taught together by an Iranian historian and an Israelli journalist, to NGO management taught by the director of Human Rights Watch in France, every class was fascinating and taught by some of the most impressive people I could ever have imagined. I immediately felt at home in this small but active AGS community because, although students and professors are all from different parts of the world, everyone takes the time to understand each other's perspective. Overall, I would recommend AGS to anyone with a thirst for intellectual stimulation and a drive to not only understand the world of international relations, but engage in it..
