Special Political and Decolonization Committee
Welcome to MSUMUN’s Special Political and Decolonization Committee (SPECPOL)! This year’s SPECPOL Committee will challenge delegates to consider the lasting impacts of colonialism in today’s world events. Delegates will get to dive into issues of Middle Eastern conflict, peacekeeping in contentious international situations, and global assistance for refugees. The dais can’t wait to meet you all and see what you have to offer SPECPOL!

Rationing Resolutions: UN Fifth Committee
Model UN relies heavily on the idea that this seemingly imaginary entity called the UN Fifth Committee magically funds all resolutions. However, the reality is that the UN is facing a lack of funding from members, meaning they simply can't afford to use what funding they do have for over-the-top initiatives that often make it into resolutions. Delegates in this double delegation committee are therefore tasked with deciding which proposals the UN Budget should fund, and which proposals would be better served by outside groups. 
Representing both nations and non-governmental organizations, delegations will have the opportunity to travel to other General Assembly committees, making this committee unique since we will be not only voting on MSUMUN XXI resolutions as they are passed, but influencing the debate around funding, feasibility, and committee purview as proposals are being written. Therefore, delegates in Rationing Resolutions: The United Nations Fifth Committee can expect to focus much more time on debate than on resolution writing and will be expected to move fluidly between topics instead of conventionally covering them in sequential order.

​

United Nations Development Program
United Nations Development Program, also known as UNDP, is the global development network of the United Nation. It aimed to help people build a better life through international cooperation. This year, UNDP will be focusing on a combination of social justice and environmental actions.

Meltdown at Chernobyl: International Atomic Energy Agency, 1986
News of an accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Soviet Ukraine has sent the international community into a frenzy. With details still unknown, scientists and politicians are in a race against time to stop disaster. As the global top body on nuclear energy, the International Atomic Energy Agency and its member states have been called upon to respond to an unprecedented crisis. Amid the backdrop of the Cold War, the agency is also tasked with setting protocols to promote nuclear safety. In IAEA 1986, step into the shoes of countries of antiquity and navigate Cold War politics in this unconventional general assembly.


The Commission on the Status of Women
The main focus of the Commision on the Status of Women (CSW) is to ensure inclusive and democratic practices for progressing the priorities women and girls need. The delegates of CSW will have to ensure accountability from different countries' governments to make national support for budgets for a commitment towards gender equality, strengthening partnerships between government and NGOs, and other topics the Assembly decides to address. Members of the committee will progress the national dialogue and guarantee transition countries adopt gender-responsive policies.
