Solebury Students Host Virtual Model UN Conferences in the Age of COVID

The Model UN activity is an opportunity for students who love discussing and exploring current world events, international relations, and diplomacy in the winter trimester. It brings these students together to role-play as delegates from a host of different countries in a simulated version of the United Nations. In a typical year, the activity period is full of training exercises as the young delegates work to master parliamentary langu年龄 and protocol, become experts on their assigned countries, and then become fluent in the concerns and responsibilities of their assigned committees. But in the 年龄 of COVID-19, this was not a typical year. The regional high school conference was postponed until at least 3月, and the prospect of a four-day Zoom conference was less than ideal. So what were the alternatives? Internal conferences.
