Resolutions are the results of a committee’s proceedings. Your goal at a MUN conference is to work with the other nations in your committee or cabinet to come to a consensus (or a majority conclusion) on the issue(s) discussed during your sessions. The document, then, will be a statement of the drafting countries' wishes or concerns on a particular issue.
      In committee, you will write draft resolutions alone or with other nations that will be discussed by the committee at large. Then, the committee will vote on the resolution; those that are accepted by a certain majority of members will pass. All UN resolutions are recommendations or suggestions for future action, except for those of the Security Council, which are binding to member nations.
      The peculiar format of resolutions may be confusing to those who have never before written one. The UNAUSA provides tips for writing effective resolutions, and includes a sample resolution.
      Also, you may want to print off a list of preambulatory and operative phrases to take with you to conference. They will come in handy.
