Katowice Model United Nations Conference

Recently I took part in Katowice Model United Nations Conference. However this time my job was a bit different because I was part of crew and not one of the delegates. I was a page. This function is very important because during deliberations delegates are non allowed to talk to each other and the only way in which they are able to communicate is through page notes. They are small notes with addressee, sender and short message. In this way delegates are able to get to some consensus between each other and write a resolution at the end of deliberations. Usually this is for informal communication between delegates in order to exchange some opinions, views and ideas. Also they can be send between delegates and chairs of the committees in order to get on the speakers list. This was very exhausting job, because I was on duty from 7am to 9pm for the full three days, but I believe that it was worth it. I was able to see how the MUN Conference looks like from the other side, from the organisers perspective and I think they it was very enlightening experience.

Hungry and tired pages.
