Introductory word from the Secretary-General
Dear Delegates, MUN-Directors and other guests,
We are very proud to welcome you to the 12th edition of Leiden Model United Nations in the magnificent building of the Stedelijk Gymnasium Leiden. My staff and I have been busy organising this conference since January this year and we hope that you will enjoy every minute of it.
Our school is very fortunate to be situated in one of the beautiful cities of The Netherlands, Leiden. Leiden has a great deal of historic significance, as it has grown from an industrial town to an intellectual centre in the Netherlands with Holland’s oldest university founded by William of Orange in 1575. Also, Leiden was a relatively safe home to the Pilgrim Fathers in the 16th and 17th
century, who were respected and accepted in society here. At the moment, the Leiden agglomeration counts almost 350.000 inhabitants, which makes it the sixth largest in the Netherlands.
At the opening ceremonies Friday afternoon, we are honoured to welcome Judge Alphons Orie as our key-note speaker. He has been one of the judges of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia for over 12 years and is currently presiding in the case against Ratko Mladic, former Commander in Chief of the Bosnian Serb Army. Before his appointment as Judge of the ICTY, Alphons Orie held a seat at the Supreme Court of the Netherlands, after attending university here in Leiden.
The main theme of this year’s edition of LEMUN is “War and Peace”. Today, we face much violence and many wars. It lies in the foundations of the United Nations to fight this. After all, in 1945 the United Nations declared to be determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war. We believe it is the responsibility of every human being to leave the world a little better than when they found it. It is crucial however, to not only think about how to solve conflicts, but also to help rebuild countries after conflicts. It is your task, dear delegates, this weekend to use fresh ideas and new solutions to contribute to a better world where we will have abolished war and created peace.
I hope you all will have an amazing conference, meet new people, enjoy our party on Saturday, be active in debate and do your bit in promoting peace around the world.

WE THE PEOPLES OF THE UNITED NATIONS DETERMINED
to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind, and
to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small, and
to establish conditions under which justice and respect for the obligations arising from treaties and other sources of international law can be maintained, and
to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom,
AND FOR THESE ENDS
to practice tolerance and live together in peace with one another as good neighbours, and
to unite our strength to maintain international peace and security, and
to ensure, by the acceptance of principles and the institution of methods, that armed force shall not be used, save in the common interest, and
to employ international machinery for the promotion of the economic and social advancement of all peoples,
HAVE RESOLVED TO COMBINE OUR EFFORTS TO ACCOMPLISH THESE AIMS
Accordingly, our respective Governments, through representatives assembled in the city of San Francisco, who have exhibited their full powers found to be in good and due form, have agreed to the present Charter of the United Nations and do hereby establish an international organisation to be known as the United Nations.

Processing a Resolution
1. Make a draft resolution.Firstly, you have to make a draft resolution. If you are properly prepared, you have made one before the conference.
2. Delegates lobby and merge.During lobbying, you try to find other delegates with the same opinion and try to merge the different draft resolutions into one complete resolution.
3. Type out the merged resolution.After finding enough clauses for a proper resolution, you will have to type the merged resolution. If you do not have a laptop, you can go to the computer rooms(they can be found on the second floor, room C14 or C15) and type out the merged resolution there. Wi-Fi is available in the main hall, you can ask for the password at the information desk.
4. Find at least 8 co-submitters; have them sign a co-submitter sheet.In order to submit your resolution, you will have to get 8 other delegates wishing to discuss your resolution. Please note that co-submitting does not mean you support the resolution, it merely means you want it discussed.
5. Bring the resolution, with the co-submitter sheet, to your President or chair.He or she will check it for grammatical errors, format errors or errors in the diplomatic content of the resolution. You can make this less time consuming by checking your resolution according to the sample resolution on page 14.
6. Take your resolution to the Approval PanelThey will check your resolution again for spelling and grammatical errors. When done with checking, they will put them in the out-box. You will have to check regularly if your resolution has been checked.
7. Make changes if needed and take the adjusted resolution to the Approval Panel, together with the resolution checked by the Approval PanelThe Approval Panel will again check your resolution. When no more changes are needed, they will approve your resolution, notify you and print it for your committee. You can now start writing your opening speech about the resolution!
N.B. During the conference, the Approval Panel or Staff can choose to slightly adjust the resolution system.

General Information and Rules
Ambassadors and Opening SpeechesEach delegation should have an ambassador, who can be in any committee. Delegations can apply for an ambassador speech during the General Assembly, the list for this can be found at the information desk. The LEMUN staff will choose the delegations which will have the opportunity to give a speech with discretion. The speech should represent the state’s primary concern about the state of the world. Insults to other delegations will be out of order, as are off-topic remarks.
Attendance and roll callsYou are expected to be present at all times when your forum is in session, unless you have permission from your MUN director to leave. Please inform your chair in a timely manner. Roll calls will be held by chairs at the beginning of every session, after lunch, and incidentally at random points during the course of the day to see which delegations are present. Unannounced absences will be reported to the Board of Directors and to the MUN directors.
Badges, placards, flags and tableclothsThe placards and badge holders are and shall remain property of Leiden Model United Nations. Delegates are not allowed to take the yellow placards home. Flags are property of Leiden Model United Nations and the THIMUN Foundation. LEMUN will charge for lost or damaged flags and placards. The tablecloths are property of LEMUN.Washing and/or replacement costs will be charged.
Dress codeFormal dress, i.e. the kind of clothes that a real UN diplomat might be expected to wear when attending UN sessions, is required at all meetings. National dress, military uniforms and armbands are forbidden.Specifically, we ask male delegates to wear a suit and a tie during the conference. When speaking a delegate should wear his jacket.We would like to ask the female delegates to wear trousers or knee length skirts and modest dress shirts (no sleeveless or mid-drifts). No sneakers or tennis shoes or denim for any delegates are allowed.
HousingThose being housed must at all times remember that they are guests and should behave as such. Please respect house rules, such as curfews, mealtimes, etcetera. Make sure you have your host’s contact information with you at all times. Host swapping is strictly prohibited. Any problems should be reported to the Housing Managers.
IdentificationAccording to Dutch law you have to carry your identification card or passport with you at all times.
Information DeskShould any questions arise about the conference, or should you need any of the staff members, then please go to the information desk, which can be found in the main hall of the school building.

To enter the party, you must show your badge and your party ticket. Disruptive behaviour will not be tolerated. Drinking at the LEMUN party shall be punished by immediate removal from the party and from the conference. Your MUN director will be informed directly. Please do not park your bikes right in front of the venue, as it will block the passage. The LEMUN party will be a costume party, so make sure you wear your costume!
Smoking and Alcoholic BeveragesSmoking is prohibited in the entire school building, as well as on the front steps by the main entrance. Alcoholic beverages may not be consumed during the conference. Legal drinking age in The Netherlands is 16 for light alcoholic beverages (beer and wine) and 18 for stronger drinks. However, on the LEMUN party, no alcoholic beverages will be sold.

Rules of Procedure
At LEMUN, we work with two different forms of debate, one where we discuss resolutions that have been lobbied about and co-submitted by a minimal of eight delegates and one where delegates do not lobby about an entire resolution but submit one clause at a time, which is debated about in committee. This form of debate is called Ad-Hoc.
The next image is an overview of the course of debate. It is also the schedule used for amendments, you would only have to change the words resolution into amendment.
Amendments
Amendments can be submitted by writing the amendment on official amendment paper. You can ask the admins for amendment sheets or get some during recess at the Student Officer desk.
International Criminal Court
The ICC might be the most unique committee at LEMUN. In the ICC, five judges, twoprosecutors and two advocates simulate a case of the International Criminal Court, this year the case of Omar Al-Bashir, President of Sudan. The committee involves evidence presented by both the advocates and prosecutors, and testimonies of witnesses of the situation.
