Welcome to our resources page, a Model UN 101 class especially made for LoboMUN and Model UN in New Mexico. Advisors can use these resources familiarize themselves with delegate expectations and tips or direct delegates here for their own learning. As former NMMUN delegates or delegates of other state conferences, experienced conference chairs, and collegiate level delegates at conferences around the world, the members of WAD who write these articles are able to offer student to student tips on how to succeed at Model UN. This is a new project of ours, so we are open to suggestions on other resources delegates may need or pointers to information which needs to be updated.
