Schoolhouse Model United Nations 2024
- Ended Sun, Jan 14, 2024
Hey everyone! We are really excited to welcome you all to the second edition of the Schoolhouse Model United Nations!
What is an MUN and Why Should You Participate?
For those who may not be familiar with MUN, it stands for Model United Nations, which is a simulation of the United Nations, with delegates taking on the role of a country’s representative to discuss and find solutions to pressing global issues. MUNs are a great opportunity to develop your public speaking, negotiation and problem-solving skills. And we’re excited to host the second edition of Schoolhouse MUN to give y’all these opportunities on the Schoolhouse.world platform!
About the Event:
The event will consist of opening and closing ceremonies, with training sessions for all delegates. There are six committees, with the details for each as follows:
United Nations Development Programme: Accelerating the creation of inclusive and sustainable industrial development
United Nations General Assembly: Discussing causes and solutions to animal extinction
United Nations Environment Programme: Analysing the progress of the Paris Climate Agreement
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation: Discussing the viability of a Common Universal Education System
United Nations Women: Economic and political empowerment of women
Food and Agricultural Organisation: Assessing the causes and consequences of unequal food distribution across landmasses and regions
The event will take place from 13th to 14th January, 2024 (Eastern Hemisphere time), with 3 committee sessions taking place everyday, each for one hour. Each delegate who attends at least half of the committee sessions will receive a participation certificate, and winners will receive certificates of excellence. The best delegates from each committee will also win Schoolhouse merchandise!
How to Participate:
1. Register for this series to be a part of the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as the training sessions for all delegates.
2. Fill in the committee preference form so that you will be allotted your committee and portfolio: https://forms.gle/KEq1UMEzisAw9nYs9
3. Your committee and portfolio will be assigned to you, and study materials for the same will be shared. After that, you’ll have to register for your committee’s series. The link for the same will be shared with you.

Kinematics and Dynamics for Ipek
Throughout this session, we will go over a brief analysis of the types of kinematics and dynamics content that are commonly seen on the AP Physics exam and syllabus and solve problems based on what we've learned.
For resources, we will be using a college physics textbook online as well as some College Board past practice papers and online physics practice resources to assess our knowledge and understanding of the material that we will be covering.
It is recommended to have pen and paper at all times and use a calculator only when extremely necessary.
