Resolution Paper


What is a Resolution Paper? 
It is the formal document that outlines the problem in a prescribed form as well as proposes, solutions that your country believes and supports.

It consists of one, rather long, but easy to understand sentence related to the issue, your countries’ beliefs in the problem and the solution.
This sentence is divided into two basic parts:
1.The pre-ambulatory
2.Operative sections.

 The pre-ambulatory section explains the problems using current events and past UN actions. 
The operative section states a proposed solution, often in many parts, to the problem.
Each clause is preceded by a phrase.
