UNHRC
The rights of immigrant workers are an essential aspect of labour rights and social justice. Major organising bodies around the world play a crucial role in championing the rights and well-being of immigrant workers. These organisations work tirelessly to address issues such as fair treatment, protection from exploitation, and access to basic labour rights. They advocate for policies that promote decent work conditions, fair wages, and social protection for immigrant workers. Organisations such as the International Labour Organization (ILO), International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), Migrant Forum in Asia (MFA), and many others actively engage in research, advocacy, and campaigns to ensure that immigrant workers are afforded the same rights and dignity as any other worker. By collaborating with governments, trade unions, and civil society, these organising bodies strive to create a more inclusive and equitable labour environment for immigrant workers worldwide.
UNSC
The Abraham Accords have brought about significant implications and raised hopes for future prospects of regional cooperation and diplomacy in the Middle East. This landmark agreement, signed in 2020, normalized relations between Israel and several Arab nations, including the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco. The Accords mark a notable shift in the geopolitical landscape of the region, fostering opportunities for enhanced economic ties, cultural exchanges, and security cooperation. By promoting peaceful relations and opening doors for diplomatic engagement, the Accords have the potential to reshape the dynamics of the Middle East and contribute to stability and prosperity. As the highest decision-making body for international peace and security, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) holds a pivotal role in discussing the implications and future prospects of the Abraham Accords. By exploring the possibilities of regional cooperation and diplomacy, the UNSC can play a crucial part in facilitating dialogue, fostering trust, and ensuring the sustainable development of peaceful relationships in the Middle East.
WHO
The illegal trafficking of red prescribed medications poses a significant threat to global health, contributing to the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This interconnected issue requires urgent attention and effective strategies to mitigate its detrimental impact. Red prescribed medications, including antibiotics, are often obtained and distributed unlawfully, leading to their misuse and overuse. This unrestricted access to antibiotics fuels AMR, rendering these vital medications less effective and compromising our ability to combat infectious diseases. To address this challenge, it is imperative to develop comprehensive strategies that encompass regulation, law enforcement, public awareness, and international cooperation. By curtailing the illegal trafficking of red prescribed medications and promoting responsible antibiotic use, we can safeguard the effectiveness of antimicrobial treatments and preserve global health. The World Health Organization (WHO) plays a central role in raising awareness, shaping policies, and collaborating with stakeholders to address this critical issue and safeguard the future effectiveness of antibiotics.
UNCSW
This UNCSW agenda focuses on the importance of inclusivity and equal opportunities for transgender women in sports. It recognizes the need to address the challenges and ensure that the rights and perspectives of transgender women are respected and considered within the realm of sports.The topic recognizes that the eligibility of transgender women athletes is a subject of debate due to concerns surrounding perceived advantages or differences in physiological attributes resulting from their assigned sex at birth. While some argue that these differences may impact fair competition, others emphasise the importance of respecting an individual's gender identity and ensuring equal opportunities for participation. Some nations have implemented specific regulations that restrict the eligibility of transgender women athletes based on hormone levels, transition timelines, or other criteria. For instance, some sporting bodies require transgender women to undergo hormone therapy and meet specific hormone-related criteria to compete in women's categories. These regulations aim to balance inclusivity and fair competition but can vary widely across jurisdictions.
ICJ
The equitable delimitation of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea has become a pressing issue, particularly due to the ongoing dispute between Cyprus and Turkey regarding maximalist claims, maritime delimitation, and the presence of warships in the region. This complex and multifaceted agenda requires careful consideration and constructive dialogue to reach a compromise that respects the rights and interests of all parties involved. The International Jurisdiction Commission (IJC) has a vital role to play in facilitating discussions and finding a fair and equitable solution. By addressing issues such as territorial boundaries, exclusive economic zones, and the use of warships, the IJC can contribute to stability, peace, and sustainable development in the Eastern Mediterranean. It is crucial for all stakeholders to engage in meaningful negotiations and uphold the principles of international law to achieve a compromise that balances the competing claims and ensures the peaceful coexistence of states in the region

ECOSOC
Addressing demographic gaps and integrating them into strategies to counter the economic impact of terrorism and illicit financial flows is a critical agenda that requires comprehensive and inclusive approaches. Demographic gaps, such as youth unemployment and marginalisation, can create fertile ground for extremism and illicit activities, posing significant challenges to economic development and stability. Effectively addressing these gaps involves promoting financial integrity, stability, and inclusive economic development. By focusing on strategies that empower youth, provide educational opportunities, enhance job creation, and promote entrepreneurship, societies can steer individuals away from extremist ideologies and illicit financial activities. Additionally, efforts to strengthen financial regulations, promote transparency, and combat money laundering and terrorist financing play a crucial role in ensuring economic stability and integrity. It is essential to foster partnerships between governments, international organisations, civil society, and the private sector to develop and implement comprehensive strategies that bridge demographic gaps and counter the economic impact of terrorism and illicit financial flows. This agenda holds the potential to promote inclusive economic growth and social cohesion while financial systems from exploitation.
UNEP
The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) recognizes the urgent need to address genetic depletion and ecosystem degradation in relation to the sustainable use of land. Genetic depletion refers to the loss of genetic diversity within species, while ecosystem degradation encompasses the decline in the health and functioning of ecosystems. Both of these issues have significant implications for biodiversity conservation, food security, and the overall sustainability of land resources. The UNEP plays a crucial role in bringing together governments, scientists, civil society, and other stakeholders to develop and implement solutions to mitigate genetic depletion and ecosystem degradation. By promoting sustainable land management practices, protecting critical habitats, and conserving genetic resources, the UNEP aims to enhance the resilience and productivity of ecosystems while ensuring their long-term sustainability. This agenda highlights the importance of prioritising biodiversity conservation and sustainable land use practices to address the challenges posed by genetic depletion and ecosystem degradation, fostering a harmonious relationship between human activities and the natural environment.
