This camp will explore the United Nations, a body founded after the Second World War to “save succeeding generations from the scourge of war.” Using a variety of active learning techniques, students will learn about some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Each student will represent a state in the United Nations Security Council, conduct research from that state’s perspective on a specific issue, and draft a Security Council resolution. On the last day of the camp, students will debate and vote on the draft resolutions in a simulation.
