The Member States are divided into smaller groups, such as the General Assembly, the Security Council, and specialized agencies, and are designated to be a particular country or diplomatic body. Delegations go into detailed investigation of the predetermined areas of focus, work on behalf of their own states and try to work in partnership with the other peoples of the states to bring the best possible results.
Advanced Level:

Whether it is about global warming, discrimination or world security, they deal with all of these topics. Discourses must have advanced research skills, logical thinking, and diplomatic heart while they negotiate the resolution which accounts for interests of many parties, and is a cause-oriented one.
