Follow-up work

Follow-up work with the completed MUN resolution may be appropriate for Model UN delegates of all ages:

  • Each delegation could send the resolution to the Embassy or High Commission of the country that they represented, with a covering letter explaining what position the delegation had taken and asking for comments.
  • Participants could send the resolution to their local MP, with a request to discuss it with them. Participants could ask their MP to forward the resolution and letter to the relevant government department and to send back any reply received.
  • Participants could ask their local newspaper to print the resolution, or a letter summarising it, and could monitor any responses.
  • If the subject matter of the resolution is relevant to the local community, participants could ask their local councillor to raise the resolution and discuss it in a council meeting. Representatives of the delegations could attend the debate and be available for questions.

Finally, particularly for larger conferences, it is always helpful to conduct a review to determine what went well and what didn’t, so that the next time you run a Model UN you can make it even better.
