Investigating Cyber Security in Model United Nations

Students in Model United Nations are preparing for a simulation of the UN Security Council on the topic "Cyber Security." Students are investigating the topic, which coincides with the school-wide global citizenship theme of "digital citizenship," from the perspective of current Security Council members, including the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, China, New Zealand, Egypt, and Venezuela. After researching their country's position on the topic, students will produce a position paper and formal speech before participating in a three-day simulation. The simulation aims to find solutions for improving the monitoring of cyberspace, holding those international actors found guilty of committing cyber crimes accountable, and ensuring a free but safe Internet.
