// Next, you should develop an understanding of the issues that will be debated at your Model UN conference. Many conferences send out background materials or issue briefs, which can help jumpstart your research. You may want to look at the sources cited in these materials for more in-depth information. If the conference background materials pose questions, you should answer them with your country information in mind. //

// Here are some additional questions to help guide your research: //


 * ** What is the problem? How does it affect your country? **


 * ** What has your country done to combat the problem? **


 * ** What are the various "sides" in the debate? **


 * ** Which aspects of the issue are most important to your country? **


 * ** If your country is not involved with the issue, how can it become involved? **


 * ** How will your country shape the debate at the conference? **


 * ** What arguments will other countries make? **


 * ** How do the positions of other countries affect your country's position? **


 * ** Is there evidence or statistics that might help to back up your country's position? **
