WHAT IS MUN?
The Model United Nations (MUN) is an organization for high school students, which
mimics the United Nations. Every year, several MNU conferences are organized all
over the world. Students from different countries participate in these conferences.

The version Lycée International de Pontonniers organizes is called PONTO-¨MUN.


This year, for the first time, it's organised by students !

WHAT IS AN ADMIN?
An admin ( or a messenger ) is the one who works to make the PONTO-MUN conference
more pleasant for the participants. Admins are responsible for the work done during the
preparation and running of the conference. They are essential to ensure the functioning and
organization of the conference. Also, if you want to have an MUN career, being an admin is a
great way to start it.
YOUR TASKS:
BEFORE THE CONFERENCE

Help the general preparation of the conference:


- preparation of the rooms for the debates (tidying up of the rooms, decoration,
layout of the tables…) -
- Making sure each country has its badge / sign on the tables

- Making sure you have everything you need ; especially sheets of paper.

DURING THE CONFERENCE


You will take care of:

Passing notes and messages in committees between


delegates and the Chairs.

Securing doors during voting procedures


General conference security

Secretarial work

Assisting members of the press


Distributing resolutions .

AFTER THE CONFERENCE

• Tidying up of the classrooms.


ACCOMMODATION

Foreign students are welcomed by the students of Saint Joseph. Each respo must host at least
one foreign student. Being able to be a host is a great advantage in order to find friendships and
universal connections, to improve in French by discovering everyday language. Moreover, you
will represent Turkish culture to foreigners. It is therefore an indispensable opportunity.

Your responsibilities:

- During the conference, you will have to respect the schedules and that you do not
make your guests late.
- You must obey and respect the charter of MFINUE and accommodation.

YOUR GENERAL ATTITUDE


You must be welcoming and smiling towards all the participants of the
conference by being available to their questions. You must always remain serious during the
debates. Even if you're on the same committee with your friends, don't gossip, it really disrupts
the debate. The official language of PONTO-MUN is English.

As you are responsible for transferring the notes to the committees, you must also
pay attention to the language of the notes, so that they are appropriate. You can look at the
content of the notes to see if they are written in French, except those intended for the " gossip
box".
YOUR DRESS CODE

The PONTO-MUN dress code is formal clothing.

PAY ATTENTION !

You must wear formal and classy attire. Sportswear is strictly prohibited.

Please try to choose your outfits according to the picture above.

THE LANGUAGE OF COMMITTEES

When the president says:

1. Distribute the resolutions/ documents —> You distribute


the resolutions.

2. Suspend passing of notes/ messages — > You stop


passing notes.

3. We will move on to the voting procedure. Take your voting position


—> Two of you come to the table of the
presidents and first count the votes for , then the votes against,
and finally the abstentions . Afterwards, you tell the president how many there are.
The other admin will be in front of the door to secure it.
4. Secure the gates —> You stand in front of the door
and you do not let in or out any delegate, press, member of the General Staff, member of
the organizing team in the committee during the procedure of voting.

Questions you will hear:

1. Can I have an amendment sheet?

2. Can I have a resolution?

3. Are we debating the resolution or an amendment?

Home ? What do I do ?

If you are a host respo (transport respo), you will go to the airport by shuttle to
accompany foreign students to Saint Joseph. During the conference, you come at the
same times as the other committee staff.

If you have a question, do not hesitate to ask us, either directly or by sending

a direct message on DISCORD.

SEE YOU SOON FOR THE 2023 SESSION!
