Rules of Procedure

*Please note that these rules of procedure only apply to the General Assembly and Economic and Social Council committees. For rules of procedure for crisis committees, please see the Appendix below.

YMUN Brasil will follow UNA-USA Parliamentary Procedure, so some details and processes may be different from what you experienced in Model UN conferences outside the United States.

We kindly ask you to defer to your dais’s discretion on any debates on Parliamentary Procedure as every conference operates slightly differently.

For ease of viewing, we have broken each component of the Parliamentary Procedure process into a separate PDF document. Please click on each header to view the PDF.
