Can someone who has been attending the MUN conferences easily participate in the Marmara Diplomacy Forum?
Yes, anyone who has attended MUN conferences before can easily join the Forum. While there are certain differences between MDF and MUN, the procedures of both conferences are similar. Our rules of procedure are clearly explained in the manuals, which will be shared with the participants.
What are the differences between MDF and MUN?
The first difference is that in MUN conferences, at the end of the committee, delegates write and submit a document called a Resolution Paper, and a vote is taken. In MDF, at the end of the committee, a special document called Press Release will be written. This document will not be voted on and each government representative will have the opportunity to express their opinion freely. The second difference is that our Forum will host a type of session called an extraordinary session, in which committees with the same language will gather in the same room and discuss a separate topic specific to the session.
What is the topic of the Extraordinary Session and when will it be hosted?
The topic and time of this session will be shared with the participants before the day of the Forum.
Is it mandatory to participate in all the sessions?
Yes, participation in all sessions is mandatory. Abstaining from three or more sessions may result in dismissal without a certificate and compensation. However, participants can consult their committee staff to inform them about a planned absence from the committee.
How can I prepare for the conference?
We provide study guides and a sample press release for each committee in our conference, which will be helpful during the representatives’ preparation process.
Can a representative change their allocated committee or country?
No, all the allocations are made by our dedicated academic team while considering the participant’s previous experiences.
Does participation at the MDF’24 conference guarantee a participation certificate?
Yes, each participant will receive a participation certificate at the end of the conference.
