The UWill Discover Sustainable Futures project is launching competitive applications for students who would like to attend the National Model United Nations in Washington, DC.

“This is an exciting opportunity for four UWindsor students to learn about the United Nations, meet new people from all over the world, and hone their global citizenship and leadership skills,” says project lead Tim Brunet.

The University of Windsor delegation has been assigned to represent South Africa, with committee assignments on the Food and Agriculture Organization, General Assembly First Committee, General Assembly Third Committee and the United Nations Environment Assembly.

The University will fund the airfare, accommodations, and other travel expenses for four delegates to attend, Nov. 10 to 12.

Participants in the UWill Discover project can apply before May 15. For more information about eligibility and the application, see the UWill Discover website.
