Committees in LCF Bali International MUN

For this MUN, we provide delegates with four committees with one interesting topic in each committee that will be discussed on the conference. Each delegate may choose only one committee to attend.
 

1.     GA-SOCHUM

                 The Social, Humanitarian and Cultural Committee (SOCHUM) is the third General Assembly of the United Nations, tasked with a broad mandate surrounding social, humanitarian and human rights issues from around the world. To delineate a general idea of the committee, some issues discussed within SOCHUM include but are not limited to: human rights, global literacy, women’s rights, children’s rights, the treatment of refugees and displaced persons, international drug control, crime prevention, and the elimination of racism and discrimination. SOCHUM also works closely with many other UN bodies in order to effectually address its mandated issues. Moreover, in this particular Model UN, we will discuss further about youth radicalism.

2.     UNESCO

                 United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) works to create the conditions for dialogue among civilizations, cultures and peoples, based upon respect for commonly shared values. It is through this dialogue that the world can achieve global visions of sustainable development encompassing observance of human rights, mutual respect and the alleviation of poverty, all of which are at the heart of UNESCO’S mission and activities. UNESCO’s mission is to contribute to the building of peace, the eradication of poverty, sustainable development and intercultural dialogue through education, the sciences, culture, communication and information. Furthermore, language in danger will be our focus in this MUN.

3.     ASEAN+3 Summit

Association of Southeast Asian Nations Plus Three (ASEAN+3) is a cooperation forum for all ten members of ASEAN with three countries in East Asia on energy, transport and information and communications technology (ICT). ASEAN+3 began in December 1997 and institutionalized in 1999 when the Leaders issued a Joint Statement on East Asia Cooperation at their Third ASEAN+3 Summit in Manila. ASEAN agreed to strengthen partnership with the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the Republic of Korea (Korea) and Japan to address mutual issues and concerns in energy security, natural gas development, oil market studies, oil stockpiling, and renewable energy. In this conference, we will specially look forward on fruitful debates regarding South China Sea conflict.

4.     UNSC

    The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) is one of the six principal organs of the United Nations, charged with the maintenance of international peace and security as well as accepting new members to the United Nations and approving any changes to its United Nations Charter. Its powers include the establishment of peacekeeping operations, the establishment of international sanctions, and the authorization of military action through Security Council resolutions; it is the only UN body with the authority to issue binding resolutions to member states. Furthermore, our LCF Bali International MUN Security Council will be debating about Syrian Civil War.
