position papers
Position Papers are highly encouraged, although not required for our conference. By submitting a position paper, delegates earn points towards conference awards. Each delegate should submit one combined position paper, consisting of one part for each topic on his/her committee. The paper should cover the basic and relevant information on the topic and then the delegate's country's position. Please read the position paper guidelines below for more information before writing your position paper.
