UN Youth QLD’s Crisis Point will see delegates (high-school students) from all across Queensland come together to participate in a simulated global security or humanitarian crisis with the responsibility to work together, problem-solve and negotiate a solution.
Crisis Point is a whole-day interactive problem-solving simulation that puts delegates (students) in the shoes of key diplomats and stakeholders to solve global security and humanitarian crises. Broking solutions in real-time to a crisis that evolves depending on the actions you take, delegates collaborate in their teams, utilising their teamwork, negotiation and creative-thinking skills to represent their own interests while compromising in the collaboration with other stakeholders. Crisis Point is a fantastic way to immerse yourself in simulated international and global issues to gain the skills and understanding of diplomacy.
Who should attend?
Crisis Point is open to all high-school students in years 9 to 12 interested in, or would like to learn more about, diplomacy and international affairs. Crisis Point engages high-school students of any experience in a simulated event, run by experienced UN Youth facilitators.
