Role of the UN (Background)
Write your resolution

2. CB South | Model UN Expectations
Per the status quo, each high school will chair one committee each; West will chair the Social, Humanitarian, and Cultural Committee; East will chair the Economics and Finance Committee; and South will chair the Disarmament and International Security Committee.  The committee chair may be the club president or a senior World Affairs Club member with previous Model UN or Model Congress experience.  When we break into committees, we will be projecting each resolution using a projector cart. Resolutions that pass committee will be moved into a shared folder and will be reviewed by the General Assembly.  

3. Role of the United Nations
The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945.  It is currently made up of 193 Member States.  The mission and work of the United Nations are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.

Write Your Resolution
CB South’s Model UN encourages you, as a delegate, to submit a resolution or position paper.
What is it?
A brief, 1-2 pg. essay detailing your country's policies on the topics being discussed in your committee.
Why do I need it?
Writing a position paper will help you organize your ideas so that you can share your country's position with the rest of the committee.
Who will review it?
Your Model UN teacher can help you construct your resolution. This may ultimately be shared in your committee meeting at Model UN! Even further, this resolution may even reach the General Assembly.
