For each of your topics, you are required to write a paper following these specs:
Country
(centered, bold, font 12)
COMMITTEE:
TITLE OF TOPIC:
1ST PARAGRAPH: Worldwide situation concerning the topic ( this would serve as an introduction, to know what kind of problem we are facing and effects or consequences this problem brings in a big scheme).
2nd PARAGRAPH: Regional situation. This has to do with what neighbors of your country also face the same (or similar) problem, and whether they are part of the solution or they are making your life more difficult. If there are good political relations or if there is some hostility issues that make the problem more complex. It helps to know which are your geographical limits…..
3rd PARAGRAPH: Country’s position & possible solutions. This is your real position paper (well, paragraph actually….) and here is where you should tell what measures is your country adopting, or rejecting, or laws passing, or whatever your country is really willing to do in reference to the problem. This info should be very clear because this is the key to alliances, wars, misunderstandings, and congruence with your country characteristics. You cannot be proposing something that goes against your country. Here you also need to include some possible solutions that may benefit the real situation of your country.
Each paragraph should ideally be 10 lines long.
Try to use your best English, with nice words, without being repetitive.
