On the first day, they were assigned committees by the Chairman and Deputy head of the MUN during which time groups discussed about the agenda of the day. The Bangladesh team from ITHS was assigned two topics: tackling the inequalities of free trade in developing nation and diminishing the consequences derived from Al Niño. Afterwards the delegates gave a 90 Seconds opening speech which was mandatory for all before moving on to the 6 hour long lobbying session.
