Integrity, tolerance, and responsibility – these are the values which we combine with insights on effective leadership in our fellowships.

Since 2013, the WorldMUN program has been shaping fellows in rhetoric, group dynamics, and negotiation. Our goal is to empower students and young professionals to discover their individual value-based leadership styles through practice opportunities while emphasising the practical application of politics and diplomacy on a global stage.
Over five months of intensive training, our fellows acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to excel, which they can put into practice at renowned events like LIMUN and Harvard WorldMUN in Manila. In preparation for these conferences, we will grant valuable political insights into Taiwan’s current political situation and global diplomacy.

For the first time in 2015, and continually since 2018, be.boosted has expanded to two programs. Like the WorldMUN team, the LIMUN team aims to empower students and young professionals, allowing them to discover their individual value-based leadership style. This year, for the first time, there will be a third team aimed at young professionals. More information on this will follow soon.
Through five months of rigorous training in rhetorics, group dynamics, and negotiation, our fellows develop the skills and knowledge necessary to excel, which they can practice at the LIMUN conference.
Beyond MUN, Team LIMUN's specific focus is ‘boosting others’. Therefore, the fellowship culminates in a workshop challenge, where our fellows put their acquired skills into practice by designing and running workshops in cooperation with a social enterprise.

BOOSTING.OTHERS
04. - 06. April in Munich
For Team LIMUN, the journey doesn’t end with MUNing: in our final challenge, you will be given the opportunity to step into the role of a Trainer. In small groups, you‘ll work together to devise your own workshops on public speaking and negotiation, drawing on the skills and knowledge acquired during your fellowship. In cooperation with partnering social enterprises, you’ll then deliver your workshops. Our aim is for the workshops to reach individuals for whom participation in „traditional“ leadership programmes is, for whatever reason, infeasible. Through the boosting:others challenge, you’ll not only deepen your own learning experience. More importantly, you‘ll actively contribute to making training in crucial skills like public speaking and negotiation accessible to a wider audience.

Be.boosted is committed to offering two programs solely for students as part of the be.boosted fellowship: Team WorldMUN and Team LIMUN. Team WorldMUN took place for the first time in 2013, and Team LIMUN expanded the be.boosted Fellowship initially in 2015. Since 2018, both Teams have been continuously offered yearly, providing students with consistent opportunities to enhance their skills and experiences.
Both programs offer extensive and comprehensive training over five months, covering various skills, including rhetoric, group dynamics, negotiation, leadership, and more. This thorough preparation ensures that our students are well-equipped for the challenges ahead. The programs vary by the number of offline weekends and their final challenges.
Team WorldMUN has three Offlines and participates in the Model United Nations in London (LIMUN) and the Harvard WorldMUN in Manila.
Team LIMUN has two Offlines, participates in LIMUN and organises its own workshop called Boosting.Others in cooperation with a non-profit organisation.
