Writing SMART Resolutions

 Hi delegates!


BMUN is just around the corner, so I wanted to revisit the process of writing resolutions!


Before we even get into the details of resolutions, the format and jargon about resolutions can be quite confusing, but not to worry! BMUN has a Resolution Structure document, linked here, that covers all the details of these papers. 


When turning your solutions into operative format, we want you to keep the SMART goals in mind:

  • S - Specific, what exactly is this operative trying to achieve?

  • M - Measurable, how will you know when this operative is successful? Are there any specific points that will make this solution more quantifiable?

  • A - Attainable, is this solution genuinely possible? Is that clear in your operative?

  • R - Relevant, will this operative positively contribute to solving this problem?

  • T - Timely, when do you expect to achieve this solution by? Are these time-constraints reasonable?

When in doubt, refer back to the SMART goals! They will really help transform your solutions into action-oriented operatives!


Again, the resolution process is such an important element of our conference, and we are here to answer any questions you may have along the way! Comment below or email us at jccbmun72@bmun.org


Best,

Siddhant and the JCC Dais for BMUN 72
