Book 2 contains information on research and preparation as a delegate,  preparing policy statements and resolutions. Every delegate should have a copy  of this book. This guide provides a variety of information regarding preparation  and participation in the MUNFW simulation. It is organized in a calendar fashion  with dates when certain activities should be conducted and due dates for  required documents, payments and available resources. The time table is based on  the Sessional year - May 1 through April 30. Depending on the structure of the  MUN program at your school, the suggested dates for some activities will not  coordinate with your class/club meetings. The guide´s time table/activities are  based the an ideal model wherein the MUN group meets during the fall period as a  club and during the winter or spring period as a class. Many schools squeeze the  entire preparation time into a winter quarter (approx 10 to 12 weeks) without  encountering major problems.
