Upcoming Simulation Conferences

 

11th Brussels European Forum 


NAVIGATING TROUBLED WATERS

New policy approaches in a time of transition

  

 

The Brussels European Forum offers students from across Europe the chance to bridge the divide between spectator and actor and take an active role in understanding the institutions which help shape our lives. Through simulating the roles of politicians, foreign ministers and world leaders and by meeting decision-makers and experts in Brussels, participants are offered a unique opportunity to deepen their knowledge of how the Council of the European Union, NATO and the G20 operate.
 
The global challenges that are faced at the beginning of the new decade are both physical and financial and there exists a clear need for institutions to react in order to confront these growing threats. Whilst the onus on the European Parliament and the G20 will be on the effects of the economic crisis that has hit the world's major economies over the past few years, the focus within the North Atlantic Council will be split between typical security concerns and emerging, less traditional challenges.
 
Through the media committee at the conference, a degree of realism to the challenges faced will be added. The unique opportunity that the Brussels European Forum offers is one not to be missed!
