Committees and Topics


CIMUN is proud to present the following committees for our 2010 conference. Background guides will be posted on the committee pages in early September.

Committees at CIMUN are divided into either our present day simulations (2010) or our historical simulation (1967), and all feature a fully-integrated crisis simulations which promotes interaction and cooperation across committees. As a result, decisions made in one committee can have effects across the conference. For more information, please see Our Philosophy and Crises and Simulations.
