Preparing for the Conference

This conference allows you to take on the role of diplomats from a foreign country in a simulation of UN committee meetings. You can become an expert on particular global issues and then meet with other "diplomats" representing countries around the world to write resolutions. These resolutions address a variety of global problems. This conference allows you to hone your skills in research, writing, public speaking, and negotiation.

All of the materials below will help you learn more about your assigned country, its policy priorities, the committee topics, and how to effectively interact at the conference.
