| Hello all and greetings from the arse-end of nowhere, New Zealand. I couldn't actually tell you where I am, but I am living out of a campervan and literally freezing, but I am so self sacrifical that I thought I would give you a start on the first conference simulation, the United Nations Security Council. This simulation is to get everyone out of their shell and negotiating with each other straight away. Each participant will take the role of a country in the UNSC and present that country in a mock session of the Council, and this time we are addressing the issue of Kosovo and its recently declared independance from Serbia. This is the first important step for the week - you are your role. It doesn't matter what you think about it, you must embody your country and put across their views - this is to get you thinking from other perpectives, and builds empathy and understanding, as well as the ability to argue from a position that is not necessarily your own. We provide loads of information about the UNSC and Kosovo, but if you wanted it would be cool to look up quickly on Wikipedia for a basic overview of the situation and how the UNSC works. I can't feel my fingers, so I think I better stop. |
