What is HMD?

Haelun’orian Model Delegates [HMD] is a programme as part of the Haelun’orian Debate Society, aiming to help educate Mali’thill in global matters of delegation whilst remaining safely within the walls of elCihi. It provides good experience for future roles within or outside of Civil Service and possible Diplomacy, encouraging independent learning, public speaking skills, social skills and a general dedication towards intellectual activity.

 

Participants in HMD conferences, known as delegates, are placed in committees and assigned countries to represent, or occasionally other organizations or political figures, where they represent members of that body.

 

 

How does HMD work?

HMD runs as a set of several non-compulsory preparatory activities leading up to a main Conference. These preparatory activities will help to develop knowledge, involving field trips and/or workshops to learn about the Delegates’ assigned Settlement, and that Settlements views upon the chosen topic of discussion.

In terms of the actual Day, it runs as follows:

 

Firstly, we hold an Opening Ceremony, where all Delegations are welcomed to the event. Delegates are asked to dress in the traditional wear of the Settlement they represent - tailored and altered to be formally appropriate, of course, should the source clothing not be. Delegates may introduce themselves to each other as their Settlement, getting familiar with who is representing who.

 

Then, we are to head into our Debate. Five Delegates, selected by the Chairs at nominations from themselves, are to present their stance upon the matter to begin the discussion, with one brief inquiry offered to each at most. A Lobbying break is to be taken, wherein Delegates may discuss with each other, finding other Delegations of similar values and forming group resolutions to the topic; presenting their ideas to the Conference as to what should be done in regards to it. 

In example of this Conference’s topic, groups would present their own agreed upon decision of how Gate Policy and Passports might function between the Settlements within the group. A final lobbying will be held wherein, based upon the ideas heard, groups can be changed, before ‘Agreements’ will be written up and signed by the Delegates of the group who formed the ‘Agreement’.

 

Finally, we conclude the ‘Debate’ - though, for this specific topic, there is a greater focus upon forming treaties and agreements. All are invited then to head to the Silver Tavern for an Awards Dinner, wherein Best Delegate titles shall be awarded by the Chairs (those who oversee the Conference). Over dinner, we would hope that the topic be discussed in a more general manner, through the perspective of each Mali’thill rather than the Settlement they have represented throughout the day.

The Okarir'maehr entered a brief state of panic at the concept of  attendees dressing in indecent Elvenessi garb and thus she began to search for items she could give to give inadequately dressed groups to cover up any scandalous flesh on display. Valindra was not a seamstress so she scoured the Haelun'or farms for some old beet sacks. She cut three extra holes. One at the bottom of the sack for the head and two a tad further up to accommodate the arms. The legs could fit through the top of the sack. She spent hours making countless beet sack modesty preservers until eventually, the walking encyclopedia turned fashion designer was satisfied with the number she had created.  Now all she needed was a name for her fashion concept, when it finally dawned upon her, her eyes lit up and she snapped her fingers.
