List of UAN Resolutions

In an effort to make decisions regarding pressing issues and international situations as one body, the United Antarctic Nations creates resolutions that are commonly adopted by the member states. These may be drafted and proposed by any member of the UAN General Assembly and Security Council, who vote on whether or not they may be approved or rejected. It is possible that resolutions can go through both the GA and SC with varying results, seeing as they are two separate bodies.

It is worth noting that these resolutions are not legally binding, and are usually considered as "suggestions" to the involved member states.

General Assembly
The General Assembly typically votes on resolution proposals that concern international politics, economics, and other issues.

In order for a resolution to pass or fail, a majority vote of 50% of the General Assembly + 1 vote of confidence is required. However, if the resolution concerns pressing or urgent issues such as large threats to international peace, sanctions on member states, or budget, a two-thirds majority is needed.

Security Council
The Security Council generally votes on resolutions concerning the international situations on peace, order, and justice. Uniquely, this body has the capacity to veto, an act that rejects the resolution despite the initial outcome of the vote, whether positive or negative. This power is only reserved for the main powers of the SC.

A resolution will pass or fail if the majority (60% and more) vote and no vetoes are made by the main powers.
