Topic: ???
The topic of the AD HOC committee is intentionally kept secret until the committee starts. This is done for a number of reasons. Firstly, it simulates realism, as real-world diplomats often face unexpected challenges and situations. It ensures that each delegate is tested and must act on real-time thinking. The committee often functions with excitement and intensity, and new information evolves each minute. Due to its last-minute topic unveiling, the AD HOC experience proves to be engaging and immersive.
