Hey delegates! For those who are going to UCC MUN, country and committee assignments are out (specified in another post)! Unfortunately, a few of us have not been allotted the committees of our original choice. If you have any concerns about the committee/country you have been allotted or you wish to switch, please contact us as soon as possible and we will try our best to work something out :). The conference itinerary is attached below. Please look over it to make sure you know the schedule for the conference. If you are fine with your country, please start researching about it. Go through the background guides on the UCC MUN website (uccmun.org/committees.html) as well as conduct some independent research. The links below will help you research and write an impressive position paper! Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we couldnt go through resolution writing in detail. So you should look over the website below and feel free to ask us for any help/questions!
