Position Papers help delegates draft out their ideas to address the topics at hand. They are also useful to study the proposals of other delegates before the conference begins to explore potentials for common ground early on.
Position Papers must be handed in as a PDF by 15th of February 2024 to GerMUN2024@gmail.com. They must be named as Committee_Country, e.g. SC_China. Each country assignment requires one position paper. Please note that plagiarism, including copying from the Background Guides, will not be accepted.
