INTERNATIONAL CIVIL AVIATION ORGANIZATION
If you are a high school student fascinated by the incredible mechanics of flight, think you can make scientific deductions from real data in real time (like Sherlock Holmes!), and are interested in making a difference to an industry at an extraordinary point in its history, then the ICAO is the place to be. R-NPSMUN 2019 presents the scientific crisis edition of the ICAO. The ICAO Council has an obligation to adopt and implement international aviation standards, and monitor the regulation and certification standards of aircrafts in its 191 member states. As delegates to the ICAO, you are entrusted with a duty to protect the interests of civil aviation in your country, in addition to a higher loyalty to international cooperation in an industry that literally carries millions of lives on board. We expect delegates to be able to discuss the current crisis in civil aviation safety which was precipitated by the tragic loss of life on board the Boeing 737 Max. You will need to be aware of existing legislation regarding aircraft and airports and also have a working understanding of your country’s air-related agreements and treaties. Members of the ICAO are enthused both by the rapidly changing nature of the aerospace sector, as well as the phenomenal science that underlies every successful flight. We hope your experience in ICAO takes off to a flying start.
