🌐 General Assembly

The General Assembly (GA) is the main plenary body of the UN. In MUN, GA committees (e.g. DISEC, SPECPOL, UNHRC) follow similar procedure: large size, formal debate, speakers’ lists, and resolutions.

📜 Typical GA procedure

  • Roll call and opening formalities.
  • Setting the agenda (if more than one topic).
  • General speakers’ list; delegates speak in order.
  • Moderated and unmoderated caucuses to discuss and negotiate.
  • Introduction and debate of draft resolutions.
  • Voting procedure: amendments, then resolution as a whole.

Speak clearly, stay on topic, and follow the chair’s directions. For crisis or small committees, procedure may differ—see the conference’s rules.
