GA/Spec Committees

General Assemblies (GAs) are committees intended to accurately represent real UN bodies. Delegates represent UN member nations in a large committee format with broad topics like world hunger or income inequality, commonly in bodies like WHO, DISEC, and SPECPOL. They follow official parliamentary procedure with little to no chair discretion. GA committees generally have 50-100 delegates, wherein delegates form groups to write resolutions solving global issues following their country’s real-world policy on the topics of committee.

Specialized committees represent non-UN bodies like presidential cabinets, labor unions, or sports teams during specific time periods or events. They are smaller than GAs, with 20 to 40 delegates. While delegates generally represent people or agencies, they may also represent countries as well. They are bound by the foundations of parliamentary procedure, but have more room to change the rules to better simulate their unique scenario. They may utilize crisis elements, like drops and directives. Delegates will still write resolutions to help solve the specialized issues in these committees.
