PACEMUNC continues for another year and its sixth-year topics are riveting. This PACEMUNC is the first to have both a crisis committee and a general assembly. Pace Model United Nations topics always align with the Isdell Center for Global Leadership\u2019s theme and this year, that theme is food. The crisis committee topic is called \u201cThe Young Ireland Rebellion:  Analyzing the Irish Potato Famine\u201d and the 13 delegates will represent Quakers, starving civilians, government officials and other personnel in this crisis. They will debate the need for aid in the 1845 Potato Famine and how to help the starving citizens. The General Assembly\u2019s topic is \u201cAddressing Agricultural Recovery and Rebuilding in Africa\u2019s Sahel Region\u201d and is a part of the United Nations special Food and Agriculture Organization committee. The 35 delegates in the assembly will discuss sustainable agriculture during intense climate change and the changing African political conflicts of present day. The student-written background guides were created by junior Reese Honeycutt, Senior Van Muller, sophomore Sri Padmanabhan, junior Braylon Cambor, junior Tyler Swartz, junior David Halsey, Senior Claire Jiang, Senior Anima Zubairi and Senior Gavin Sender. Senior Van Muller says \u201cboth of our committees have been thorough to accurately investigate and short-handedly reproduce the most important information on the topics to help the delegates succeed.\u201d  The delegates will debate different concerns within these committees and then they will collaborate to pass resolution papers to solve these issues. <\/p>\n\n\n
