Awards and Participation Certificates

All delegates who attend each committee session will receive a McKenna MUN XII certificate of participation. We will also be distributing awards to delegates who demonstrate extraordinary public speaking ability, negotiation and diplomacy, knowledge of their topics of debate, and creativity in their proposed solutions. In crisis committees, delegates will also be evaluated based on the creativity, detail, and impact of their crisis notes. Delegates may receive a Best Delegate award, an Outstanding Delegate award, an Honorable Mention award, or a Verbal Commendation award in recognition of their talents. In addition, each General Assembly and ECOSOC committee will award one Research Award to a delegate who produces an outstanding position paper. These awards will be determined at the discretion of the Chair of each committee.
