Unit 6 Group Study Agenda

Model United Nations


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Model UN is a great opportunity to get involved in politics and debate, and meet interesting and intellectual people from all over Georgia and the Southeast.
 
It's not a major commitment, except for the two days of school missed for each conference (typically we do two a year, each hosted at a different university.)  We also often hold weekly/monthly meetings, where we learn about debate, research our countries, and hold mock sessions.
 
Before each conference, we choose a country, and each student chooses a committee that interests them- could be human rights, environmental, etc.  You research your country's views and attend the conference, where you debate with other students.
 
It really is fun, and a great resume addition for anyone who wants to show off an interest in economics, politics, world issues, and public speaking.
 
Please email me ariana.lewis96@gmail.com or my co-president seth hochman, sethhochman1@gmail.com, or come up to me in the hall, if you have any questions!
 
We're also going to be on facebook soon- look for us!

Thank you so much, Ariana Lewis
