The Freshman Class of 2028 simulated debates on contemporary global issues during Austin Prep’s fourth annual Model UN conference. Led by the History Faculty, this event was planned to engage students in several weeks of extensive research and analysis of global issues. Students were tasked with consensus building through drafting, lobbying, and debating to pass a suitable ‘resolution’. Students were engrossed in playing the roles of delegates, speakers, and chairs, representing different countries and working together to reach a solution for the committee they were assigned. This year students participated in nine committees, focusing on current events, including food security, emerging cyber technologies, global land acquisition, and more. #modelunitednations
