UNesCO

United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization

UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, explores how international cooperation can protect knowledge, culture, and human heritage across generations. Working at the intersection of education, science, communication, and culture, UNESCO considers the ideas, identities, and institutions that shape how societies understand themselves and one another. This committee invites delegates to reflect on how the past is preserved, how culture is protected, and how innovation can support rather than erode shared human inheritance. In doing so, UNESCO offers a forum for considering how diplomacy can safeguard both the diversity of the present and the legacy left to the future.

How big will this committee be? This will be a medium-sized committee.

Is this a single- or double-delegate committee? This is a single-delegate committee, so each delegate will represent their assigned country or position independently.

How much experience do I need to sign up for this committee? This committee is well suited to delegates who are familiar with the basics of MUN, while still being accessible to delegates of all experience levels. It is a particularly good choice for delegates interested in culture, heritage, education, innovation, and international cooperation.

How much will I have to speak in this committee? Due to the medium size of this committee, delegates should expect to speak a moderate amount in each session. The format also allows some flexibility, so delegates can choose to contribute more or less depending on their confidence and whether they want to challenge themselves.

How will debate be structured in this committee? This committee will follow our standard Rules of Procedure.
