Screencast: Video of using the UN website for your Model United Nations (MUN) research
It seems like most tutorials about how to research for Model UN are so wordy and ineffective. A screencast is a video of a computer screen that can explain very clearly how to do something on the computer.
This is a screencast of how to use the UN Website for research, specifically showing you how to find resolutions, speeches and voting records on the UN website. Speeches are the best place for you to find your country's policy. Using the technical information, the verbage and speaking style presented in speeches can be recycled for your own performance in committee at the conference.
Time of the video is a bit less than 30 minutes.
Contents of the speech:
- UN Website Basics
- Intro to the UN Databases
- Intro to UNBISNet
- Finding Resolutions on UNBISNet
- Finding Voting Records for Resolutions
- Finding Speeches
- Finding Old Speeches on the ODS
