CANIMUN Rules of Procedure
Please be advised that the CANIMUN rules of procedure closely simulate the process taken by the committees and bodies of the United Nations. As such, the UN’s Department of Public Information encourages MUN conferences to facilitate dialogue with formal committee speeches and informal dialogues (no moderated caucus). Delegates are advised to review the rules of procedure prior to the conference, as they may differ from other MUN conferences.
The CANIMUN 2017 Rules of Procedure can be found here.
Position Papers
All delegates are required to submit position papers. The CANIMUN 2017 Position Paper Guide can be found here. IPF and ICJ delegates should note the special position paper instructions found on the second page of this document.
