ComMITTEES
Yale MUN South Asia prides itself in offering a diverse array of engaging committees reflecting real-world world issues that encourage debate and diplomacy.
YMUN South Asia aims to create an engaging and enriching experience for all delegates by offering a wide and diverse array of committees reflecting different interests and levels of experience. From large General Assembly committees to smaller, crisis committees focusing on issues across South Asia, there are options for all delegates. See the descriptions below to explore each of our committees and the different experience level committees we offer.
Beginner committees
Beginner-level committees are designed for delegates with limited or no prior Model United Nations (MUN) experience. Each committee can accommodate up to 100 delegates, aiming to develop essential skills and boost confidence for future conferences. Participants can anticipate receiving personalized support and guidance from committee directors in a stimulating and rewarding environment. It's advisable for delegates who have attended three or fewer conferences to opt for these committees.
Intermediate committees
Intermediate-level committees cater to delegates with some experience in Model United Nations, typically between 4 to 7 conferences. These committees feature a moderate size, accommodating up to 70 delegates each. They focus on honing existing skills, refining diplomatic strategies, and promoting deeper understanding of global issues. Delegates can expect a balance of guidance and autonomy from committee directors, fostering a challenging yet supportive atmosphere conducive to growth and learning. This level is recommended for delegates looking to further develop their MUN proficiency.
Advanced-level committees are tailored for seasoned delegates with extensive experience in Model United Nations, typically more than 8 conferences. These committees are smaller in size, accommodating around 40 delegates each, ensuring a highly focused and intensive crisis environment. Participants in advanced committees can anticipate engaging in high-level debate, negotiation, and consensus-building under the guidance of experienced committee directors. Advanced committees provide a platform for delegates to showcase leadership, strategic thinking, and diplomatic finesse, making them ideal for delegates seeking to excel in MUN.
