Shape North America’s Future!
The North American Forum on Integration is organizing from the 22 to 26 of May 2006 the second edition of the Triumvirate, the only North American model parliament. About 15 universities will be invited to assign senior bachelor students and post graduate students to simulate, during five days, a parliamentary meeting between Canadian, Mexican and American national and sub-national parliamentarians. Each participant will have to represent a country other than their own, and adopt resolutions regarding real issues faced by the NAFTA partners.

A second edition in 2006
A second edition of the Triumvirate will take place from the 22nd to the 26th of May 2006, in the Mexican Senate. Here is the Official Program.


By organizing the Triumvirate, NAFI aims to:

Unite young leaders of Canada, the United States and Mexico to develop their knowledge of North American issues and political dynamics;
Foster a better knowledge of the workings of democratic institutions and of the partner countries of NAFTA;
Expose participants to an international negotiation experience in which everyone has to develop and adopt proposals that are likely to consolidate the North American region;
Develop a trilateral approach to political and economic issues and a feeling of belonging to North America;
Support intercultural exchanges and the creation of networks of contacts among young North American university leaders;
Inform decision makers of the vision and concerns of youth concerning the future of North American relations.
Themes are:
1- NAFTA’s dispute settlement procedure;
2- the creation of a North American investment fund;
3- migration flows;
4- mobility in the domain of higher education.
