Crisis Committees

Crisis Simulations are fast-paced, creative committees that require delegates to think quickly on their feet. Delegates in Crisis Simulations are expected to quickly adapt to the dynamic nature of the committee, therefore requiring delegates to be highly familiar with the substantive content of their committee. These committees encourage delegates to wholly engage with nuanced, complex topics of discussion to stimulate the ever-evolving nature of the United Nations.
