Committees: general assembly

A General Assembly, in Model United Nations, is the committee type that most accurately simulates UN proceedings. Every delegate represents a country or a character and brings his or her respective views into the debate. Delegates debate in a moderated caucus for the majority of the conference, work together on draft resolutions in unmoderated caucuses and eventually hope to pass their work through the committee once the entire committee has agreed to enter the voting block. The committee will be headed by a chair, who will control moderated caucus, but will also heavily rely on the assistance of two to three moderators to handle all documents, timekeeping and awards judgement. Delegates are NOT required to submit position papers, nor will any awards be presented for research or position papers.
