The University of Birmingham’s United Nations Association is inviting all those interested in partaking in stimulating diplomatic debate to register for Europe’s First Model Arab League.
The Model Arab League is an attempt to recreate, as accurately as possible, the conditions of the real Arab League through diplomatic debate.
It puts members, known as delegates, into the position of the member Arab League countries with different strategies and objectives, on focusing on the needs of their people’s beliefs and concerns.
Different councils or committees discuss different sorts of topics and have different remits. Committees range from the Joint Defence Council to the Council of Arab Economic Affairs.
Delegate debate is based on writing a resolution which forwards your own country’s interest, but which is achieved through negotiations and compromise. Resolutions represent the conformation of a committee about what course of action should be taken on a particular issue. Delegates are expected to draft, contend, debate, and ameliorate on the relevant committee issues until all parties agree.
This Model Arab League Conference is set to take place at the University of Birmingham, from the 20th-22nd of February 2009.
This is will be a unique event and is expected to lead to a culmination of new ways of thinking and looking at the contemporary issues affecting the Arab world.
Please Feel Free to leave your comments, register your opinions and perhaps engage in some preliminary debates with other interested parties on this blog site.
