It focuses on negotiation, coalition-building, ideological clashes, and high-pressure decision-making.
By revisiting major historical events, the committee enables participants to understand India’s political evolution, study policy impacts, and engage in dynamic debates rooted in real-world contexts. It is known for its informal structure, sharp rhetoric, and emphasis on strategy, diplomacy, and political insight.

Comprising 47 member states elected by the UN General Assembly, the UNHRC conducts dialogues, reviews human rights records through the Universal Periodic Review (UPR), and deploys special rapporteurs to monitor specific issues and regions.
In Model UN, the UNHRC offers a platform for delegates to debate pressing humanitarian concerns, draft rights-based resolutions, and advocate for the dignity, freedom, and equality of all individuals.

Comprising all UN member states, the committee works through debate, negotiation, and consensus-building to develop recommendations that strengthen international stability.
