UN Youth Tasmania’s annual State Conference brings together over 50 delegates from across the state for a weekend of leadership, diplomacy and advocacy. Join us from April 14th to 16th to take part in the global conversation about international law and its influence in the 21st century. This flagship event presents an opportunity for you to develop your skills in public speaking, negotiation and critical thinking alongside an incredible group of like-minded students.
The 2023 State Conference spans across two and a half days, giving you a whole weekend to make new friends from across the state! Delegates (students) will spend their time at State Conference meeting each other and getting to the heart of the international law interactive workshops, a speaker panel, and by tackling a simulated Interactive Problem Solving activity. The final day of State Conference is your chance to emulate a member state of the United Nations in Model UN committee debates. Get into a diplomat’s shoes for a day and do your best to pass resolutions that will benefit the global community and align with your national interests – not always an easy task.
