COMMITTEES FOR EAGLEMUNC XiV
Please scroll through the tabs to learn more about this year's committees.
General Assembly committees offer an engaging experience that closely emulates the structure of the United Nations, providing delegates with a platform to immerse themselves in international diplomacy. These committees are designed with a strong focus on sparking debates, making them especially inviting for novice delegates. The subject of discussion is chosen from among topics in the background guides by setting the order of agenda. Rather than acting through crisis notes, delegates actively participate in substantive discussions in order to find a comprehensive solution to a topic. Whether you’re a newcomer or a seasoned delegate, GAs present an exciting opportunity to strengthen your debate, negotiation, and collaboration skills.
Hybrids offer delegates an experience somewhere between the fast-paced crisis environment and the more debate-focused scene of a General Assembly. Delegates will act as characters or countries in a committee responsible for addressing general issues and resolving urgent events. The committee will start by setting the order of agenda, then delegates will need to address the topic at hand by writing directives or contributions to a resolution. Delegates will not have portfolio powers, but they will be able to send crisis notes to the back room. Based on their actions in committee and the notes they send, crisis events will periodically add an additional layer to the flow of the committee.
Crisis committees are the most unconventional element of Model UN, drawing off of a fast-paced structure with consecutive crises centered around a generalized conflict. Rather than representing a country, delegates typically assume the role of an individual. Their job in the front room is to assess various crisis events as they arise and collaborate with others to take collective committee action in the form of passing directives. In the backroom, delegates have the opportunity to create their own crisis arc by using crisis notes to secretly exert their will on the committee. Periodically, crisis staffers will enter the room to present updates based on the actions of delegates in the front and back rooms.
These committees are intended for creative, seasoned, and engaged delegates who wish to challenge themselves beyond the realm of a typical committee.

thematic committee
The Thematic committee is a unique, specialized committee that integrates the traditional Model UN experience with innovative, hands-on debate and problem solving. Inspired by the conference theme, this committee challenges delegates to work quickly and diligently to create intuitive and comprehensive solutions based on other outcomes and crises debated in other EagleMUNC committees. The Thematic committee encourages delegates to observe patterns, utilize attention to detail, and solve issues globally and holistically. Delegates will be forced to think critically, connect the past to the present, and think beyond current truths. EagleMUNC is very enthusiastic to explore this year’s iteration of the Thematic committee: THE GRAND PURSUIT!
Welcome to The Grand Pursuit— where double delegates must race across the globe in teams, facing new challenges at every turn, and contestants will compete through countries and cultures in pursuit of victory. But nothing is going according to plan. From missing hosts to natural disasters, the journey descends into chaos with each new stop. Delegates must decide who to trust, who to sabotage, and how to adapt as the world around them unravels. Only the cleverest will survive the twists, form the right alliances, and reach the finish line in one piece.

Ad-hoc
TOPIC WILL BE ANNOUNCED AT THE CONFERENCE!
The Ad-Hoc committee offers a fast-paced and exciting environment for more experienced students. Delegates will have their critical thinking skills tested as they are tasked with coming up with creative solutions to unique problems that fall outside the scope of a traditional Model UN committee. The topic of the Ad-Hoc will not be revealed until the start of the conference. Before the first committee session, students will receive a packet that briefs them on the situation and describes their role. Throughout the year, we will release teasers that may help you reveal some of the secrets of the Ad-Hoc. An unforgettable journey awaits for those who choose to apply!
Previous Ad-Hoc committees include:
Deserted Island (EagleMUNC XI)
1800s Privateers (EagleMUNC XII)
The Cuban Missile Crisis (EagleMUNC XIII)
