Beginners Committee: DISEC Double
This year, the Disarmament and International Security Committee will be run in a form of beginner committee. The aim of this committee is to teach Model United Nation’s unique parliamentary procedure to inexperienced delegates and cover debatable topics at the same time. Despite slower pace than other General Assemblies, the Disarmament and international Security Committee will still focus on controversial topics like prevention of arm rise in space.

United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Welcome to UNESCO 2021! The dais cannot wait to celebrate MSUMUN’s 20th anniversary tackling the world’s most pressing issues across a broad array of topics. From deciding the future role of gene editing in society to ensuring equal access to education for individuals affected by crises, delegates will debate, negotiate, and formulate solutions the world has yet to provide. The breadth of topics this year will require delegates to reach outside their comfort zone, but ensure they leave the conference having learned about a diverse array of topics and having discovered the nuance accompanying modern-day problems. Once again, the UNESCO dais is happy to have you with us, and we’re ecstatic to see what you bring to the table!

United Nations Development ProgrammeHello and welcome to United Nations Development Program (UNDP) XX’21! We can not wait to have you in our committee this year, as we explore the challenges that are facing education around the world. As technology advances and the world becomes smaller, educators are able to reap the benefits of a more interconnected society. Unfortunately these benefits are not distributed equally. The UNDP believes that every child has a right to quality education, and has worked for years to see this goal through on the global stage. As members of this committee you will address the hardest hitting problems seen by educators today, and work together to create solutions that will foster the next generation of students.

International Atomic Energy AgencyIn 1945, the first nuclear bomb was dropped, which changed the trajectory of history and disrupted international relations. More states have nuclear weapons now than ever before, and it is up to you to tackle issues of nuclear security and nuclear energy. In this modern-day committee, delegates will discuss nuclear non-proliferation or proliferation, nuclear waste disposal, and nuclear energy disaster management. In addition to addressing pressing issues, delegates will be asked to respond to crisis type elements to prevent disaster. Delegates must consider how nuclear proliferation or non-proliferation affects the balance of power internationally, evaluate how regional powers could use nuclear weapons to their advantage, and keep nuclear technology out of the hands of non-state actors. You must also decide how to best dispose of nuclear waste, which could potentially last hundreds of thousands of years. Lastly, delegates will be tasked with mitigating the damage from nuclear energy plant meltdowns and decide if nuclear energy is worth the risks and public criticism. These issues will affect generations and generations to come, and the future is in your hands.
