  • Baytul Iman Academy Model United Nations 2014 team has won an honorable mention and THREE resolutions passed out of a possibility of six! We were assigned by the UN to represent the country of Sweden this year in our second conference. It was an international conference with 1600 delegates from all over the world; which included thirteen countries (Australia, Japan, Italy, Turkey, and Ghana to just name a few)!! It also included schools from all over the United States (fifteen states besides New York)! All of the delegates were divided into twelve committees, ranging from 258 to 68 students. Out of the six committees that we were in, three were in rooms of 150 plus student delegates! The conference ran over three days (March 27th, 28th, and 29th) and was extremely exhausting lasting from eight to twelve hour days. There were a variety of schools present at the conference; ranging from privately run institutions, Islamic schools, magnet schools, charter schools, public schools, and even high schools! Each delegation had a chance to win one out of four positions per committee. If you won one position, you couldn’t win another. Some schools had the advantage of representing two or more countries in one committee giving them an obvious advantage. Baytul Iman was entered into six separate committees giving them a meager chance of: (Four positions, one per delegation per category)
