UN Youth New Zealand (formerly the United Nations Youth Association of New Zealand or UNYANZ) serves as the youth arm of the United Nations Association of New Zealand (UNANZ) and is one of the largest youth organisations in New Zealand. UN Youth is a member of the World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA), which in turn has consultative status to the United Nations Economic and Social Council. UN Youth is a non-profit community organisation run by volunteer young people (aged 25 and under or full-time tertiary students). == Activities == UN Youth runs approximately 25-30 regional and national events for secondary school and university students throughout the calendar year. Regional events are coordinated by the Regional Councils,〔http://unyouth.org.nz/events/regional-events〕 while national events are overseen by the UN Youth National Executive. The key events are the Model United Nations (Model UN). A Model UN conference involves each participant taking on the stance of a particular country and debating a number of resolutions from that stance, all within formal rules of procedure similar to the United Nations General Assembly. Model UN conferences take place in each region, with a national conference taking place each July in New Zealand's capital, Wellington. New Zealand Model United Nations (NZ Model UN) involves approximately 250 secondary school students. 〔http://unyouth.org.nz/events/national-events/new-zealand-model-united-nations〕 UN Youth also facilitates and assembles delegations of New Zealand students to attend international conferences which focus on the United Nations and international affairs. UN Youth New Zealand currently send delegations to: * The Hague International Model United Nations (THIMUN), a major international Model UN conference, held in The Hague, Netherlands. * United Nations Youth Conference (UNYC) held in Australia, organised by the United Nations Youth Association of Australia, under an event known as the Pacific Project. * (Asia Pacific Model United Nations Conference ) (AMUNC) held in the Asia-Pacific region, hosted annually by universities for university students. * Harvard National Model UN held at Harvard University, in the United States, sent under a tour known as StatesMUN. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「UN Youth New Zealand」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
