The Evatt Model United Nations (Youth) Competition

The Evatt Model United Nations (Youth) Competition

The Evatt Model United Nations (Youth) Competition is a negotiating competition for students in Years 9-12. Simulating a session in the UN Security Council, delegates (participants) work in teams of two to represent one of the fifteen member states in negotiations to settle threats to global peace.  Each team is given a resolution which the countries in the chamber will try to change, keep the same, or vote for or against. I loved participating in this competition because it allowed me to meet like-minded people, practice my public speaking and negotiating skills, as well as learn more about international relations and politics. The EVATT Competition is a fantastic opportunity to develop your skills and have fun while doing so!
