GENERAL ASSEMBLY

Topics: 

The prevention of an arms race in outer space

Mitigating drug supply through alternative development

Protecting the human rights of unaccompanied migrant children and adolescents


Letter from the President

Delegates of the General Assembly, 


The General Assembly Team like to welcome you to the fourth annual American School of Dubai Model United Nations Conference. Seeing as the General Assembly is notable for its versatility, it is no surprise that we will be debating an array of different topics affecting regions around the world. As a result, General Assembly can serve as both the commencement to your Model United Nations career or its continuation. Delegates, in this conference, you have the liberty of both leading the pack, or choosing to observe the debate process. When it comes to it, however, each delegate holds just as much purpose in this forum. 


In this year’s conference, we will be entertaining the topics of, “The prevention of an arms race in outer space,” “Mitigating drug supply through alternative development,” and “Protecting the human rights of unaccompanied children and adolescents.” With the world evolving so rapidly, it is crucial that we evolve with it and expand our horizons in order to maintain peace and prosperity. We are challenging delegates to be as creative as possible when trying to find viable solutions to the numerous crises around the world with this years theme of "Combatting Crises with the Unconventional."



Each delegate is expected to contribute to all major aspects of the MUN process. Delegates are highly encouraged to research both the issue at hand as well as their delegation’s stance on it. Moreover, delegates are to come prepared and ready to lobby, debate, and express their positions to the forum with confidence and courtesy. Once again, we thank you for coming and expect nothing but great things from this year’s conference.


Warm regards, 
​Naya al Jabi
