Minnesota YMCA Model United Nations Country Position Paper
The Position Paper is designed to help you learn how your country feels on the topics that are specific to your Organ or Committee. You should complete one Position Paper per topic. It should contain basic information relating the topic back to your country.

For example, if the topic was “Bees Dying Off,” you would need to know how many bees live in your country or how much agriculture depends on bees. You should clearly state your countries stance and what the ideal policy in relation to your country is. You want to get as close to the governments actual position as possible. This can be hard because not every government explicitly shares their positions. Sometimes you will have to make educated guesses based on your research in the Status Report, and other articles. The Position Papers should be educational and not stressful.

HINT: If you are nervous about speaking at MUN... that’s OK! Your position paper can help you. If you start by simply reading your “thesis” or your countries basic stance to the group, you will find countries who agree with you and might help you write a resolution!

NOTE: You will receive a link to your responses after submission and you will have the opportunity to edit them after submission, as well.
