THIMUN+2009

CAC delegates, Due to your capabilities in debate as well as MUN experience, you have been selected to travel to the Hague to participate in the annual THIMUN conference. The history of THIMUN is quite impressive. To learn more about the history of the conference of more than 3000 delegates, visit http://www.thimun.org/history.htm. As the delegation of Cairo American College, we will be representing Sudan in a variety of forums this year. After our meetings, the forum assignments will be updated on this page. A link to all of the issues being discussed in all forums will also be supplied as soon as they are posted on the THIMUN website http://www.thimun.org/main.html As members of the CACMUN wikipage, each individual is contributing their research and information to the page. We hope that this page can serve as a solid base to start from for your research, as well as a point in which delegates can share information found and show the work they have done to research Sudan's policy on different issues. Some beginning resources have been supplied below. The THIMUN website also provides a section exclusively for research on the issues involved in this year's conference. The link is http://www.thimun.org/research/index.html. We leave for The Hague on the 23rd January 2009. Thank you for contributing to this wiki, and congratulations on your hard work to reach this point! Good luck with your research!
