How
To JOMUN
Lobbying can take multiple forms. In Johannesburg Model
United Nations XII (JOMUN XII), it refers to the act of delegates attempting to
influence the decisions of the president, deputy chair, and chair to come to a
conclusion on the proposed resolution. A lobbyist role includes: researching
and analyzing proposals, monitoring and reporting developments, attending
regulatory hearings, cooperating with interested coalitions on the same issues,
and educating officials of the various changes made. Lobbying and a lobbyist
job is essential to the process of accepting and rejecting proposals to come to
a conclusion on the topic at hand.
In addition, learning how to prepare an excellent MUN
speech is fundamental to presenting a strong argument while debating. So,
here’s a couple pointers on how to get started! Firstly, a persuasive speech
requires you to convince the audience and make a statement that will be
remembered. Ensure that you speak freely, rather than forced and off a note
card. You still want to hear human! Second, keep in mind you want your points
to flow in a logical and consecutive order that, ultimately leads to a climax.
In addition to this, use specific key words to enhance the audiences’
understanding. Cinch this all together by re-emphasizing your main points in a
clear and distinguished voice. If you require any additional help on the
building of your debate, ensure to read through the JOMUN booklet for further
guidance on common JOMUN procedures and sample speeches.
Lastly, efficient and effective not taking is essential
to succeeding during the JOMUN conference. There are several different methods
including: the cornell method, the outline method, the mapping method, the
charting method, and the sentence method. Assure that when you choose your
method of note-taking it is a method suited to your learning style. For
instance, if you are a visual learner make certain to use the mapping method.
The
cornell method consists of dividing your paper into several sections. Leave a
six inch margin on the left to use to review. Leave a summary section on the
bottom of the paper to condense your notes. Lastly, the section left consists
of the notes you take at the current time. Below is a diagram illustrating
this.
The
outline method consists of indenting towards the left for main points. Then,
pushing the points to the right to fall under the specified main point.
The mapping method relates facts and idea to each other
in a ‘bubble method’. This allows the relationships to be seen between certain
concepts and is easy for those who are visual learners to synthesize the
knowledge together.
The charting method separates your paper into rows and
columns with designated headings. Record your information into the appropriate
category.
The sentence method consists of writing essentially every
thought, fact, definition, etc. down in a numbered format. In turn, this
organizes your notes into separate points that is more effective to read
quickly than whole paragraphs.
Therefore,
I hope these small pointers on how to survive your JOMUN conference lead you to
success. Good Luck!
