Using the Background Guides
Each background guide will introduce the committee, explain its mandate, describe the two conference topics, summarize previous international action, and identify questions delegates should consider.
The background guide is a starting point, not a substitute for country research. Delegates should use it alongside the resources on the Delegate Preparation page to determine their assigned country’s interests and positions.
