In Search of New Resolutions
Debates, arguments, agreements, and conclusions were all heard yesterday, August 22, during the annual GMUN (Graded Model United Nations) conference. Delegates meticulously prepared their research and position papers with different possible solutions for the world’s problems. The Political Committee discussed the Ukraine (Crimean Conflict) and the international response to the Iraq Crisis, while the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) addressed Greece’s Debt Crisis and its future in the Eurozone.
