“The Gulf War”

Freeze date: To be revealed soon

In the real world, situations arise that cannot be handled in the calm methodical setting of a committee. An international crisis can flare up at any moment and they must be dealt with accordingly or things could get much worse. When this happens, emergency sessions take place at the highest level of government. These situation room situations are unpredictable. They force delegates and representatives to think quickly and decisively. Sometimes errors are made, or remedied, within a short time span. 

A Model UN Crisis simulates this. It brings an element of excitement to a conference, especially for the delegates who get to sit in the hot seat. Not every conference has a Crisis committee. Generally, they can be found at larger conferences that can handle the extra staffing requirements and can provide the classrooms and other elements needed to run a good crisis.
