IVAMUN: Diplomacy in the Face of Conflict
Diplomacy in the face of conflict. This theme was picked to contrast our current time of great conflict where diplomacy was not emphasized enough. Diplomacy requires patience, understanding, and the ability to empathize with the other side. It requires the willingness to listen and communicate, even when the other party’s views and beliefs differ from your own. It demands respect for cultural differences, and the ability to find common ground despite these differences. In the face of conflict, diplomacy can be a challenging task, but it is necessary. It has the power to transform hostile relationships into peaceful ones. Diplomacy can bring about economic development, stability, and prosperity for nations. Which is why we encourage all delegates to adhere to this theme and maintain the utmost respect for all fellow delegations.
Delegate sign-up's open until may 17th!
