Model Diplomacy is a program much like the Model U.N. designed by the U.S. National Security Council on Foreign Relations. It teaches 16 real-life scenarios using a comprehensive system that involves textual simulations and role-playing. It is also similar to Google Classroom so that learners can create accounts and share a common dashboard and other features with their peers and educators. Lessons can also be toggled between high school and college levels.
