Special Committees
The Security Council is a place for experienced and capable delegates to shine. Security Council delegates will start the conference alongside General Assembly delegates in an assigned topical committee to craft resolutions.
Later in the conference, when the General Assembly convenes to debate the resolutions, the Security will convene as a separate group to deal with an unfolding crisis.
The goal of the Security Council is to craft a resolution on this crisis that will then be passed to the General Assembly for debate.
Most delegates attending the Marist Model United Nations will be members of the General Assembly. Following the crafting of resolutions in topical committee meetings, delegates will gather in the GA to debate the resolutions. Prior to the start of debate, a number of delegates will be chosen to provide speeches for and against the resolution at hand. Following the for and against speeches, debate commences.
At the end of the conference, the General Assembly will be presented with an emergency crisis resolution for a final competitive and pressing debate.
