| Simulation Name: | Recent Crises |
| Description: | United Nations Commission to resolve recent world crises. |
| Simulation Type: | Role Playing |
| Details: | Recent World Crises is a 30 minute role playing simulation in which groups of four or five students simulate a United Nations commission seeking a political resolution to one of the following world crises: Northern Ireland, West Bank, Bosnia, or Kosovo. Students receive ethnic and religious data for their specific region and the two countries contending for the region, but all labels and names are fictitious so the students cannot determine which crisis they are considering. Subsequent discussion can contrast the decisions of the various student groups, compare aspects of the four crises, or focus on any discomfort or shift in position when the identities in the crisis are revealed. |
