NEIMUN 2017 SECRETARIATTo assist with the planning and organization of NEIMUN 2017 Conference, a group of young people is selected to serve as Secretariat officials, similar to those in the United Nations and Organising committee. The roles are critical to the management of the NEIMUN Leadership Conference 2017. The aim is to have a geographically diverse and gender balanced group of NEIMUN officials who will take on leadership roles in the planning and management of NEIMUN 2017. We aspire to create something amazing for young people. 400 young people between 18-25 will gather at NEIMUN 2017. It’s truly an enriching and memorable experience, and we believe that it is something special for someone to say that they helped run a NEIMUN conference.
