Preparation and research

Position papers are due April 19, 2026 by 11:59 pm to each committee's respective email in PDF Format. Research is an incredibly important aspect of Model United Nations and it's a facet we are proud to promote at Novice 48. Every committee includes an extensive Topic Synopsis that provides an overview of the topic and a case study, along with questions and sources to help spark your own research. Additionally, Novice 48 strongly encourages delegates to submit a position paper. Please reference our position paper format below. Note that delegates are still eligible for committee awards without submission of a position paper; however, they will not be considered for a research award.
