G20
Agenda: Mobilising G20 support for sustainable infrastructure projects in Africa.
The G20 (Group of Twenty) brings together the world’s major economies to discuss global financial stability, sustainable development, climate change, and international trade. In MUN, delegates simulate negotiations on pressing economic and geopolitical issues, aiming to build consensus and propose joint strategies.
👉 In MUN, this means debating economic reforms, drafting communiqués, presenting policy recommendations, and voting—all focused on strengthening global economic cooperation.
Formed in 1999, the G20 has become a leading forum for international economic coordination, representing around 85% of global GDP and two-thirds of the world’s population.
The Speaker (Chairperson) calls the house to order, ensures discipline, and takes attendance. The agenda for discussion is officially announced.
Each delegate (representing a country) gives an opening statement, outlining their nation’s position, concerns, and goals on the agenda.
Delegates speak when recognized by the Chair. They present arguments, discuss human rights violations, propose solutions, and respond to other countries’ views.
Delegates move around and interact informally to negotiate, build alliances, and start drafting resolutions or working papers together.
The drafted resolutions are submitted to the Chair, and then debated in the committee. Delegates may propose amendments to strengthen or alter the draft.
The Speaker calls for a vote on the bills or resolutions. Delegates vote For, Against, or Abstain. A majority decides whether the proposal is passed.
The Speaker announces the result, summarizes the discussion, and formally adjourns the session.
