The SOFIMUN '2009 conference for young
leaders hosted around 150 delegates from
more than 40 nations worldwide and apart
from dealing with current world issues the
participants had the opportunity to present
their state of origin by bringing
traditional food and drinks at the 1st
Carnival of Nations. Also the music and
dances were international and mixed in the
world atmosphere the participants gained
moments they will cherish and remember
always. On the spot was the
SNN journalist
Mr. Ivo Napflin (Switzerland) who made this
video in order to present to the wide public
part of the informal sessions of
multi-national and diverse ways of
communication between representatives of
different states and civilizations.
Welcome to the SOFIMUN Foundation
Ms. Paola Ivanova
President of the SOFIMUN Foundation
Dear friends,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you at the
official website of the SOFIMUN International
Foundation.
The SOFIMUN Foundation was founded in 2008 to
promote the goals and aims of the United Nations,
to help young people educate in the sphere of the
United Nations, European Union and other
international organizations, to mediate in the
participation of the youth in global matters. The
SOFIMUN Foundation is established by a group of
young professionals after the successful
conclusion of the very first international Model
United Nations conference in July 2008 in Sofia,
Bulgaria.
The SOFIMUN Foundation’s team is dedicated to
ensure a better education, understanding,
intercultural dialogue and perspectives for the
young people. We do this through organizing
various projects and events, working with
different organizations, going on study trips and
cooperation with partners and friends. So far, the
SOFIMUN Foundation has organized, supported and
helped in the organization of several
international events and has an extended network
of partners from all parts of the world. Some of
our most popular projects are the Sofia
International Model United Nations conference
(held annually in July), the I-MUN portal, the SNN
news portal, the campaign in Bulgarian and among
the MUN events for the establishment of an UN
Parliamentary Assembly. Our projects help people
to gain and develop skills and education in
various fields – international relations, world
organizations, politics, human rights, security,
environmentalism, economy, education, journalism.
The team of SOFIMUN consists of professionals from
different nationalities and backgrounds all
together aiming to facilitate the dialogue and
cooperating between the young people.
For its relatively short period of existence, the
SOFIMUN Foundation has become a powerful
ambassador of young professionals all over the
world with its hard work, professionalism,
creativeness and profound thinking. Created by
young professionals for young professionals, the
SOFIMUN Foundation has proven to be a place for
every creative and open minded person, who wishes
to gain and extend knowledge on various global
issues as well as to be part of them. SOFIMUN
keeps developing successfully in different fields
and keeps on supporting and implementing
initiatives of young perspective persons.
The SOFIMUN Foundation aim at building bridges
between nations and perspective people in a
dynamic way by influencing them to cooperate and
work together upon issues that are part of the
world challenges of tomorrow. We do believe that
such a goal is and has to be a value of today’s
young people.
I welcome you to take the opportunity and
participate in achieving common aims for a better,
more educated and intercultural tomorrow!
Thank you for your interest in the SOFIMUN
Foundation!
Sincerely,
Ms.
Paola Ivanova
