Pautas para dirigirse al comité
NUNCA usar la primera persona del singular para referirse a uno mismo. No hablas en tu nombre, sino en el de un país.
Para referirse a uno mismo usar la primera persona del plural o decir «the delegate/ delegation of...»
NUNCA usar la segunda persona para dirigirse a otro delegado o al Presidente del comité, se considera una falta de respeto.
Para referirse a otro delegado hay que usar la tercera persona del singular o decir «the delegate /delegation of...»; «dear/fellow delegate/colleague»; y para dirigirse al Chair se puede decir: « Honourable/ distinguished Chair».
