Impact Analysis: Understanding how climate change disproportionately affects developing countries, including economic, social, and environmental dimensions.

Whodunnit: A Classic Murder Mystery Delegation
Traditional Crisis
Dr. Black Sr., whose wealth is only matched by his mystery, cordially invites you to his secluded mountain estate to celebrate the engagement of his son, Mr. Black Jr., and the enigmatic Dr. Orchid. In the dead of winter, the so-called “friends” of the happy couple gather... but Black Sr. has always had more enemies than allies. When the engagement party takes a deadly turn, it falls to the remaining guests to put aside their grudges, uncover hidden secrets, and find the killer. In a house where everyone harbors secrets and a killer is on the loose, trust is a luxury in short supply, and survival isn’t guaranteed. Can you unravel the mystery before it’s too late, or will you become the next victim? Your fate rests in your hands.
Why Can’t We Be Friends?: Haitian-Dominican Relations Throughout History
Non-Traditional Crisis
She’s had plenty of border problems and been occupied by some questionable powers. She’s been blamed for promoting economic disparity and widespread distrust. It’s the iconic island of Hispaniola. Delegates in this committee will be tasked with navigating one of the most tense states of relations between neighbors in the world throughout different moments in history. The committee will take place during 3 precise moments in the history of Haiti and the Dominican Republic - one of partnership, one of conflict, and one in modern context - with delegates assuming different roles in each period.
Arcs will be contained to each segment but delegates would have access to similar resources/connections in the second segment as they attained in their first and so on. This committee will require creativity and flexibility as the historical crises evolve.
Peace, Land and Bread: The October Revolution 1917
Traditional Crisis
Welcome to Petrograd, Russia! The year is 1917. You are a member of the Provisional Government tasked with navigating between differences in political parties, interests, and ideologies in post-Tzarist Russia. In an effort to prevent a Civil War, Mensheviks and Bolsheviks alike must diplomatically propel their personal or party interests. Through coalitions and blocs, legislation and decrees, or behind the scenes transactions, you must garner support for your agenda for Russia’s future. Employing the power of the bourgeoisie, the people, meddling foreign powers, and the state at your disposal, how will you contribute to the creation of a new government, or the conservation of the provisional government?
