The NMUN staff aims to de-emphasize individual competition and promote teamwork by not giving individual awards, only delegation awards. However, NMUN delegates get to vote for who were the Best Delegates in their respective committees — this does not impact delegation awards, but the Best Delegates receive the honor of standing to be recognized in the middle of the UN General Assembly Hall.
At closing ceremonies for the Sheraton venue, the NMUN staff recognized many schools with delegation awards, but NMUN delegates recognized one school in particular — Florida International University students were named Best Delegate in 12 committees, in addition to receiving the conference’s highest award of Outstanding Delegation.
