The Fondazione Mediterraneo hosted the last lessons of the training course for the students from Università degli Studi di Napoli “L’Orientale” and Università degli Studi di Salerno participating to the NMUN 2011, coordinated by the Associazione Ideagorà.

This is an opportunity to understand the internal functioning of the United Nations, developing at the same time skills in the art of the diplomacy and the compromise; moreover the encounter among students from different backgrounds make the NMUN one of the most effective instruments for the teaching of the dynamics of the multilateral diplomacy and the international relations.

Promoted by the Assessorate for Development and Innovation of the Comune of Naples, the Convention “Doing business in World 2.0. Opportunities in the light of the state of the art” offered a wide gamut of experience and competence for understanding and not submitting to the dynamics of the ongoing revolution.

In this sense there was a meeting of experts, innovators and entrepreneurs, mostly Neapolitans, who have not only managed to understand the possibilities of the web 2.0 but who have successfully managed to benefit from them, like Massimiliano Canestro, leader of the multi-award winning “SMS Engineering”, Nino Ragosta, founder of the  highly clicked site “fantagazzetta.com” and Stefano Consiglio, the mind behind the “Angeli per viaggiatori”, the most explosive travel community on the web.
