General Assembly Plenary (GA) - Recommended for novice and intermediate delegates.
Note: The General Assembly will simulate Security Council Elections. The elections of the Security Council's non-permanent members are not a topic, but rather a process that will be simulated in the General Assembly. Therefore, it should not be addressed within GA position papers. This process will take place during the committee sessions on Sunday, November 24. Please read the Explanatory Note for more details.
