What is a Model United Nations delegate or diplomat and what are the duties?
The Model United Nations students take on roles as foreign diplomats or delegates and take part in a simulated session of intergovernmental organizations. Participants research a country, take on a role as diplomats engaged in international negotiations, investigate international issues, debate, discuss, consult and then develop solutions to world issues. During a simulation they must employ a variety of communications and critical thinking skills to defend and advance the policies of their country.
