General Assembly

Classic Model UN. Delegates will be working together to debate problems and create resolutions to address them. General Assembly follows the following flow of debate:

• Roll Call

• Moderated and Unmoderated Caucus

  • Debate problem, form groups, craft resolutions. 

• Formal Caucus

  • Present Resolutions

• Voting

Specialized

Similar to classic Model UN. Delegates will be working together to debate problems and create resolutions to address them; however, in specialized committees delegates will have more control over the world they are in. This will be carried out through Crisis Updates where members of Crisis staff will inform the delegates about "current events" and how their debates, resolutions, and other actions have effected the outside world. This will help shape the flow of the committee to feel more impactful. 

• Roll Call

• Moderated, Unmoderated Caucus, and Crisis Updates

  • Debate problem, form groups, craft resolutions. 

• Formal Caucus

  • Present Resolutions

• Voting

Crisis

Crisis is by far the biggest twist on MUN; here, delegates tackle global issues and work together to find solutions. But it's not just talk—delegates have the power to shape the world they're in. Through Crisis Updates, they learn how their decisions affect what's happening around them, making the experience feel real. In addition, delegates can use their portfolio powers and directives to have a greater impact on the problem. Portfolio powers are actions that can be done by delegations/characters based on the power they wield in the real world. For example, a delegate representing the US could use their portfolio powers to implement sanctions or even launch nuclear weapons. As you can see, Crisis is a really fun and chaotic committee where NOTHING is off the table. 

• Roll Call

• Round Robin Speaking

• Unmods and Mods

• Passing Directives

In general, crisis flows more organically and operates a lot faster than traditional committees.

JCC

JCCs, or Joint Crisis Committees, are when two different committees are both in the same "world" and addressing similar or identical problems. These committees could range from the Senate and the House of Representatives, to NATO and the Warsaw Pact. JCCs follow a similar structure to Crisis except that delegates in separate committees are
