Delegates listening to Govenor's address at GMUNC 2009
In June 2009, the UNAA organised a National Model UN Conference entitled “Kyoto to Copenhagen: Addressing the International Framework on Climate Change” in partnership with the 2009 University of Melbourne Festival of Ideas.
This meeting was held at Government House and hosted by our Patron, the Governor of Victoria, Professor David de Kretser A.C. The conference discussed the same issues that were addressed at the Conference of Parties meeting held at Copenhagen in December 2009.
The one-day conference, held on the 24th of June, brought together leaders from government, industry, corporate and environmental sectors to debate the key issues that were to be discussed at Copenhagen. The participants in the conference adopted the role of a member of a UN Country delegation and debate from the perspective of their assigned country.
