What is lobbying?

Lobbying is a process taken before the submittance of any resolution. The resolution will be made available to all member nations before the debate. If you have not submitted the resolution, it is your job to confer with other nations and find nations who share the same opinions as your nation.

Talk to other delegations see what their stance is on the issues being addressed to seek compromise for similar ideals. Then you can second thier resolution and speak in favour if it is relevant to your policies. If you have ideas, you may also become a joint submitter and add clauses that you think would be useful. If you are submitting a resolution, you need to lobby to get people to second your resolution, add clauses and speak for it.

This is also arranged through lobbying. A speaker with take the floor and speak on her opinion and will then be asked to yield the floor to the chair, however the speaker may yield the floor to another delegation supporting the same view. The floor can be yielded to three delegates before it must be yielded back to the chair. This action helps support an argument and create a flow of ideas. In The Hague you can pass notes to other delegations requesting that they yield the floor after they take the floor.
