Dear

 Future  Delegate,  

It  is  our  sincere  pleasure  to  invite  you  to  the  2011  Model  United  Nations  conference,  hosted  by  the  
University  of  Northern  British  Columbia  and  the  City  of  Prince  George.  Delegates  are  being  drawn  from  a  
pool  that  includes  all  of  Northern  BC.  The  purpose  of  the  conference  is  to  educate  our  future  leaders  in  
the  art  of  politics,  debate  and  international  diplomacy,  while  promoting  post  secondary  education  in  all  
faculties.  Of  course  it  goes  without  saying  that  the  main  goal  is  to  have  fun  in  a  safe  and  supportive  
environment!  

The  conference  takes  place  on  April  1-­‐3,  2011  and  is  located  within  our  Prince  George  campus  grounds.  
Delegations  from  outside  of  Prince  George  will  be  responsible  for  their  own  lodging  (although  a  group  
rate  may  be  possible).  The  conference  staff  will  provide  all  meals  except  breakfast,  including  a  grand  
opening  dinner  catered  by  the  University.    The  registration  fee  does  not  include  lodging  or  any  other  
miscellaneous  costs  associated  with  travel.  This  amount  MUST  be  received  prior  to  attending  the  
conference.  Early  registration  will  be  March  3rd,  and  late  registration  will  be  accepted  until  March  29th.  
Please  note  that  this  is  non  refundable.  Delegates  are  encouraged  to  register  at  the  earliest  possible  
date  in  order  to  have  first  choice  of  country  assignments  and  receive  delegate  preparation  packages.

The  conference  itself  will  focus  around  three  core  issues:    

1) Nuclear  Disarmament  

2) Food  Security  

3) Civil  Unrest  and  Failing  States  

Delegates  are  expected  to  come  to  the  conference  with  a  basic  knowledge  of  these  three  topics.
