We will award a Best Delegate, Outstanding Delegate, Honorable Delegate, and Verbal Accomodations for each committee.
Best Delegate
At Lightridge High School, the Best Delegate award should go to the delegation that demonstrates remarkable diplomacy skills. They should be an effective communicator, a creative problem solver, and be skilled at collaboration with diverse groups of people.
This looks like:
making memorable speeches which communicate specific and knowledgeable ideas
empowering other delegations to contribute their skills to the team effort
demonstrating a depth of knowledge of the subject and introducing thoughtful of the solutions
exhibiting behaviors which are in line with the United Nation's mission of Peace, Dignity, and Equality
in a crisis committee: using private and public directives to advance plot and debate
Lightning Peacebuilder Award
The Peacebuilding award is to honor a young person who demonstrates exemplary character through inclusiveness, positivity, and generosity.
This looks like:
Noticing when individuals are struggling to be heard, and making sure their voice is included in conversations
Being a friend to others, both in and outside of the official committee session
Consistently using a tone that conveys acceptance and kindness
Regardless of their role in the committee, they treat teammates as partners and not subordinates
