The speakers list is the order in which delegates will give their opening speech. Below is a step by step guide for how this works virtually:

  1. Chair opens the speakers list: The chair will ask “Who would like to be added to the speakers list?”

  2. To raise your hand: Click Participants —> click “Raise Hand”

  3. Chair adds you to the list: the chair will have their screen shared as they type the list of countries who want to give their speech.

  4. Lower your hand: After your country has been added to the list, click on “Raise Hand” again to lower your hand.

  5. Un-mute to give your speech: When it’s your turn to give your speech, click the “un-mute” button. When you’re finished, say “Thank you” and mute yourself again.

  6. Time limit: When you reach your time limit to give your speech (usually 1 minute), the chair will let you know. You can finish your sentence, then end with “Thank you.”
