Preparation and research

Position papers are due April 14, 2025 by 11:59 pm to each committee's respective email in PDF Format. Research is an incredibly important aspect of Model United Nations and it's a facet we are proud to promote at Novice 47. Every committee includes an extensive Topic Synopsis that provides an overview of the topic and a case study, along with questions and sources to help spark your own research. Additionally, Novice 47 strongly encourages delegates to submit a position paper. Please reference our position paper format (click here). Note that delegates are still eligible for committee awards without submission of a position paper; however, they will not be considered for a research award.
