HARRY POTTER UNIVERSE HIGHLIGHTS
WIZARDS PLEASE REGISTER NOW NASA award winning DIGIVATIONS Camp Demigod’s Harry Potter Universe is a blend of world building through innovation, role playing and speculative fiction. Recognizing this foundation and based on the clear needs of last summer’s Harry Potter Camp, the directions of J.K. Rowling’s books and movies, and the goals of enabling our exponentially talented campers/students to develop into young leaders while still having fun, we have introduced Harry Potter Universe which simulates elements of the United Nations. In doing so, we remain true to the essence of the Harry Potter franchise and the abundant joy of role playing, making special wands, learning magical spells and Quidditch while convening in a beautiful and mystical natural environment.
Immerse yourself in the DIGIVATIONS XGENS Model United Nations Innovation Academy & Harry Potter Universe. Meet internationally like-minded youth and create friendships of a lifetime. Acquire the knowledge and wisdom of scientific experts, world class artists and thesbians while enjoying hiking through the beautiful DEMIGODLODGE.org estate’s wand woods, surrounding professional trails, beach time, and all that the Cascade Mountains and the beautiful Bavarian Town of Leavenworth, WA provide; 2 Hours East of Seattle, WA; 4 Hours Southeast of Vancouver, BC, Canada; 3.5 Hours Northeast from Portland, WA and 2.5 Hours West of Spokane, WA.
As special benefits, Wizards will, of course, have the opportunity to enhance their wands from the wand woods with DIGIVATIONS own creators who follow Mr. Ollivander’s notes.
“Every single wand is unique and will depend for its character on the particular tree and magical creature from which it derives its materials. Moreover, each wand, from the moment it finds its ideal owner, will begin to learn from and teach its human partner.”

Wizards will take these wands on unique adventures to the U.S. Department of Interior’s Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery, fws.gov, where they will learn hands on from RangerWizards about the science behind environmental changes impacting the mystical creatures that inhabit the rivers.
Participating as global ambassadors, citizen Wizards learn from world renown experts in fields encompassing international relations, law, global politics, innovation, and so much more. Wizards work together to draft resolutions advancing solutions to issues regarding Climate Action & Adaptation; the Future of Work in an Artificial Intelligence World; Curing Disease through Bioengineering and the tools of CRISPR and CAR-T, and the Ethics of applying such tools; and Space Exploration, Colonization and preventing Weaponization. Wizards will also learn about the underlying concepts of the U.N.’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

While there remains some questions for the Harry Potter Fandoms to debate and resolve, it appears that the governing world of the Harry Potter Franchise encompasses the description below. This knowledge is vital as it provides the background necessary to analyze and resolve issues in simulations of the U.N.'s 6 main organs including the U.N. Security Council, Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), and General Assembly.

Globally there is the “International Confederation of Wizards” which is a wizarding intergovernmental organization, and roughly equivalent to the United Nations in the Muggle world. British seats on the International Confederation of Wizards are probably selected by the Minister for Magic, possibly subject to the approval of the Wizengamot, though this is not entirely clear. Also, in the United States, the wizarding governmental organization according to Pottermore is “The Magical Congress of the United States of America, known to American witches and wizards by the abbreviation, MACUSA (commonly pronounced as: Mah – cooz – ah), which was created in 1693, following the introduction of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy.” The last US continent detail for consideration is that, “MACUSA was modeled on the Wizards’ Council of Great Britain, which predated the Ministry of Magic. Representatives from magical communities all over North America were elected to MACUSA to create laws that both policed and protected American wizard kind." (from Pottermore)
Now, for those of you who are new to NASA award winning DIGIVATIONS CAMP DEMIGOD INSTITUTE’s Innovation & Literary Camps, now in its 7th season, we provide the leadership, faculty, and content within a framework which empowers the wizards to create the experience for each other. In other words, we provide the materials and rocket fuel for the Nimbus 2000, and the wizards plan the missions and explore during their adventures according to what motivates them.
The evolution of DIGIVATIONS Harry Potter Camps is the Harry Potter Universe and Model U.N. Innovation Academy. This is your ticket to platform 9 3/4 and taking the next step to novel experiences and fun. Hence, integrated into this experience will be the knowledge, “secret sauce,” our partner WFUNA (World Federation of United Nations Associations) WIMUN Geneva and NY have taught to our expert faculty. These magical talents power the most authentic world of U.N. simulations applying the WIMUN consensus approach coupled with UN4MUN procedures.
Wizards will apply all their new knowledge and talents as they immerse themselves in the following back story to save the Wizarding and Muggle world through peaceful means, or will they? The Muggle world is threatening the Wizarding World through its lack of international cooperation. The wizards must convene their own version of the ECOSOC (Economic and Social Council) focused on facilitating resources necessary to resolve the divide causing the lack of cooperation among nations. The Security Council addresses whether the Wizarding Council should approve a war by the wizards against the Muggles, and the General Assembly addresses mitigating the weaponization of the quantum realm. These issues will be resolved in a rarely used forum known as the Wenatchee River Institute located in nature to remind the wizards that they must consider being peaceful stewards to ensure that “Nature Remains In Balance.”
Wizards will apply their advanced knowledge, which is equivalent to their early learning of the language of spells and magic, to navigate DIGIVATIONS’ Harry Potter Universe. The most talented of wizards who succeed in this universe, ages 14 and over, will be afforded the opportunity to receive free registration as members of the DIGIVATIONS XGENS, XGENS.org, Delegation to attend WFUNA WIMUN GENEVA 2019. In this capacity, since XGENS is the North American Recruitment Partner for WFUNA WIMUN GENEVA 2019, delegates will receive unique benefits including assignment of preferred countries to represent, and the opportunity to present in the Palais des Nations.
LEAVENWORTH TOWN & BEACH TIME:
Wizards will continue to enjoy role playing immersed in the beautiful natural environment of DEMIGODLODGE.org and Leavenworth, WA, as they romp throughout the Bavarian town's ice cream, gelato, bakery, taffy, clothing, sporting goods and costume shops and the many beaches along the Icicle and Wenatchee River.
We wish you an amazing and unique experience in the DIGIVATIONS XGENS Harry Potter Universe.
