Having had the privilege of doing an intercultural exchange, and now of studying abroad, I have developed a passion for international affairs. At be.boosted I hope to not just experience a first-class MUN simulation of international affairs, but also to improve many crucial skills like public speaking and debating. I look forward to being pushed outside of my comfort zone and working with highly driven people.

Katharina Bach

Psychology, Munich

I am excited - exited for meeting, discussing and learning with my peer fellows in the coming months. Joining be.boosted is not just about learning effective communication and public speaking – it’s about the people. I want to get to know the other fellows, the trainers, and the alumni. As we come from various backgrounds, I believe all of us have inspiring ideas for the future that are worth listening to, worth sharing and maybe even worth working on together.

I joined be.boosted because of its open and supportive atmosphere, creating a space of collaborative growing. The targeted subjects of leadership and effective communication are key in so many occasions, both small and large context, and highly relevant also in my engineering field of studies. With this exciting journey in mind, I am looking forward to meeting all the inspiring people involved in the weeks to come.

Good leadership is essential for successful navigation of challenges. By joining Team London 2021, I hope to learn how to adapt my leadership type based on the situation and how to communicate accordingly. As our world becomes more virtual in the current pandemic, we face new challenges that require quality leadership. I am excited to discuss some of these challenges and also have fun with a group of young, like-minded people from various backgrounds.

Elena Schulz-Ruhtenberg

Public Policy, Berlin / Paris

Be.boosted is a great opportunity to practice exactly what I am not taught at university: how to communicate knowledge and ideas so that they transcend the classroom and inspire others who are not experts in your field. I am passionate about discussing public policy issues and how we can overcome the short-sightedness and path-dependency of politics. This being said, I look forward to encountering curious and critical minds!

Nicolas Krieger

Political Science, Munich

As a student of politics at the LMU Munich I spent a lot of time with like-minded students. Therefore it is not always easy to expand your horizon significantly. That's why the program of be.boosted is so remarkable. It brings together incredibly interesting young people from the most diverse backgrounds. The exchange with them while enjoying great rhetorical training will be very exciting!

Fiene Kohn

Law, Münster

I am Fiene, a 23-year-old law student from Münster, Germany. I joined be.boosted to build upon my public speaking skills, gain some new knowledge in the field of negotiations and get to know some interesting and motivated people! I am very much looking forward to this experience, to learning from my fellow teammates and to develop my personal skills.

Anna Tröbs

Biomedical Computing, Munich

I joined the fellowship to grow in one way or another, to learn, to be challenged, to be inspired, and to challenge and inspire my fellow LIMUN team members who I am really looking forward to meeting. I hope that the programme will help me a little in answering questions like where I want to be, how I want to get there and how I want to and can make a change for the better in at least a few people’s lives.

Moritz Weckbecker

Mathematics, Cambridge / Berlin

During the Covid-pandemic, we’ve seen the importance of science communication. Academia must strive for exchange with the wider population to restore trust in scientists and change peoples’ lives. I am very grateful for the chance to learn from my mentors and peers and improve my rhetorical skills. When I am not studying mathematics, I enjoy music and sports, planning projects and heated discussions.

Lea Wowra

Political and Social Studies, London / Essen

I am looking forward to ameliorating my communication and negotiation skills within an inspiring be.boosted-community. The experiences of living and working on various continents have prompted my interest in international relations and diplomatic affairs. Thus, I joined the UCL Diplomacy Society and am gaining valuable skills as Head Columnist for its Diplomacy Review. In entering the world of public speaking now, I feel empowered in my pursuit of becoming a responsible future leader.

Vinzenz Boddenberg

Law, Bonn

Working hand in hand on our flaws regarding communication and negotiation skills enables us to develop on a personal and professional level. These qualities play an essential role in a complex modern society where value-based and transparent leadership is of utmost importance. I am truly looking forward to working with so many exciting and engaged young people as a part of the Team LIMUN 2021!

Celina Proffen

Economics, Frankfurt

As a PhD student in Economics, I truly love the theories and models with which I deal on a daily basis. But what makes me so passionate about my field, is really the chance of applying new insights to global problems such as inequality and climate change. With this goal in mind, I always seek to improve my leadership and communication skills, while exchanging thoughts and having fun with fascinating people!

Julius Mex

Physics, Cambridge / Berlin

Wanting to link what I am learning at Uni to society and to creating a positive impact, I am very excited to join be.boosted to learn about public policy and international decision-making. I am interested in the skills necessary to develop and present one’s argument and am looking forward to reflecting on and learning about communication as a way of understanding and of creating new ideas together.
