The Model European Council (MEC) is an annual event that brings European Schools together for a role-playing simulation of a European Council conference. Many interesting discussions regarding climate change, gender equality, foreign affairs and more take place at a set location, which is decided upon every year, with equal opportunities for all countries in the EU to participate. 5 members are selected to represent one country, and each of these 5 members represent one council, the councils being: Council 1 (The European Council), Council 2 (General & Foreign Affairs), Council 3 (Economic & Financial Affairs), Council 4 (Justice & Home Affairs) and Council 5 (Environment & Energy). Not only are there teams of 5 representing EU countries; there are also the Press Teams and the Media Teams, who carry out their respective roles during this event as well (e.g. Press Team – writing newspaper articles regarding discussions that were carried out etc. + Media Team – managing social media accounts etc.). These conferences seem to get better and better, as new, interesting proposals are brought up each year to discuss with EU member states!<\/p>\n
This year, our school (ESK) is representing Germany and Ireland, as well as the Media Team. The Media Team has opened up and is managing an Instagram account (@mecmunich2022), so make sure to follow it for further updates! <\/strong><\/p>\n We wish all our students the best to make this year\u2019s MEC a success once again!<\/p>\n\n\t\t
