The purpose of AWS is to simulate the workings of the United Nations, allowing students to learn about global issues, diplomacy and negotiation while improving their public speaking, critical thinking and leadership skills.
Delegates at AWS represent a country or delegation and engage in debate, negotiation and resolution writing, advocating for their country's (or delegation’s) policies and interests while seeking common ground with other countries and delegations.
