The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime is a UN branch that works towards international peace and security. Its purpose is to intercept crimes such as terrorism, human trafficking, and drug trafficking. In this case, for this committee, delegates will be focusing on comprehending issues regarding cybercrime, by exploring different offences that arise from technologies. As the digital world continues to grow each day, it becomes more and more imperative for effective resolutions to be reached to minimize the amount of cybercriminals, and their misconduct on the internet.
After the Great Recession of 2008, the infamous cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, came into existence to provide individuals with a decentralized currency. This was created to be a tool to protect people’s finances, and privacy, by removing the control of governments and banks; thus the concept that led to the birth of thousands of other cryptocurrencies since then. Unfortunately, the pseudonymous nature of cryptocurrencies, a component intended to protect privacy, has also been exploited by criminals. Issues like money laundering, sanction evasion, and embezzlement have started to plague the world as a result. On a positive note, cryptocurrencies are also being used as a tool for developing nations to improve their economies. For this topic, delegates must understand the mechanics of cryptocurrencies to develop comprehensive approaches to address various unlawful activities associated with them. At the same time, delegates must also recognize the potential benefits of these currencies for the greater good.
The dark web is notoriously known as a hidden section of the internet, often associated with illicit activities and online black markets. However, despite its reputation, the dark web’s original purpose, and the majority of its use today, is not illegal. Dark web browsers, such as Tor, were introduced to the world to provide people with safer, and more secure internet use. Today, it is being used in oppressive regimes by whistleblowers, activists, and journalists to seek freedom and help. That being said, cybercriminals do take advantage of the anonymity of the darknet to participate in illegal activities such as drug trafficking, arms trading, and intellectual property infringement. Taking this information into account, and considering the fact that dark web browsers are legal in most countries, delegates will take their respective nation’s stance on how to apprehend and prevent these criminals, while acknowledging the dark web’s uses; balancing its necessity with the need to mitigate harm.
The United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund, also known as UNICEF, is a United Nations committee that provides humanitarian aid to countless children worldwide. UNICEF was first established in 1946 to provide emergent care to children and mothers devastated by World War II and has continued to make various efforts since then to fight for children’s rights, lives, safety, and health. As a committee, UNICEF’s mission is to ensure that all children worldwide grow up healthy, educated, and most importantly safely. Today, UNICEF provides a better future for disadvantaged children across over 190 countries, symbolizing hope for many globally.
As accessible international mobility continues to strengthen, viruses and diseases spread at revolutionary rates. The UNICEF committee will especially focus on maintaining the balance of public health and individual rights within child welfare. As an advocate for children on the world stage, it is up to delegates to determine the proper proactive response with regard to parental/individual rights, financial strain on nations, ethical implementation, as well as many other morally ambiguous factors playing into this issue.
With the popularity of fast fashion and large companies expanding globally, child labour and exploitation become a hard issue for many to ignore. While it may seem simple to point out that child labour is a horrific problem that plagues many families and nations, especially developing nations, finding a solution is far more complex. This is because child labour and exploitation is a multifaceted issue with deep-rooted causes. Additionally, many countries and companies worldwide rely on the exploitation of these workers to boost their economies, causing this to be a rapidly growing issue worldwide. Ultimately, this is an issue that needs to be tackled from its roots and to not only end it but also prevent it for the future.
The United Nations Human Rights Council, also known as the UNHRC, was established by the General Assembly of the United Nations in 2006 and is dedicated to protecting human rights around the world, addressing violations of human rights, and establishing recommendations on how to resolve them. Comprising member states committed to upholding the principles established in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UNHRC serves as a platform for open dialogue, critical discourse, and collaborative action on pressing human rights issues.
Voting is one of the basic human rights which can't be denied to every human being, but in a few countries voting rights are denied for a few reasons mainly for Criminal Records. This is implemented in a few countries to prevent criminals from voting for the wrong leader of the country. The same goes for weighted voting systems where an individual's vote will count less the older they get in order to give way to the young individuals to choose the right leader to sustain the current period of time and in the future where the young individuals are the ones going to experience under a government in the long term.
Minors' ages in several countries differ according to each country’s different policies and political backgrounds such as the Minor Consent age in few countries is different from several other countries. In a scenario of a minor with no parents but in that country the minor has not reached the appropriate independent action age, that specific minor would not be able to access basic needs without their parents’ consent such as education, health care, etc. In several countries, minors are asked to consent to medical treatment as the minor knows better what's going on.
The African Union is the successor to the Organization of African Unity (OAU). The AU was established in 2002 and is a continental organization representing 55 member states. Its duties include dealing with the most important problems facing Africa, such as economic expansion and instability in politics. Agenda 2063, a comprehensive plan aimed at developing Africa into a global powerhouse, united in peace and prosperity, embodies the core objective of the African Union. The path to accomplishing these ambitious goals is not without its difficulties, though, as member states frequently must find a balance between their own national interests and the aspirations of the continent as a whole.
With its core values in freedom, justice, equality, and African unity, the AU aims to bring peace, security, stability, and democratic governance while working toward sustainable development and global representation for Africa.
The Sahel region has become a hotspot for political instability, with countries like Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso experiencing military coups in recent years. The situation has gotten worse as a result of insurgent organizations like ISIS and al-Qaeda taking advantage of the weaknesses in the area. The stabilizing effects of international military deployments meant to counter these radical threats have not always materialized. Some contend that these interventions strengthen military regimes, weakening democratic governments and creating instability in Africa.
Delegates must think about establishing an agreement between local government and military assistance as we examine this issue. While some may believe that military assistance is essential to bringing about stability in the area, others will need to consider whether community-driven peace initiatives, humanitarian aid, and diplomacy can provide better long-term solutions. The primary points of contention will be how to bring the region's government back on track while also addressing the fundamental causes of the insurgencies and making sure that military support doesn't encourage more opportunities for corruption.
The African Union's Agenda 2063, which aims to transform Africa by 2063, embodies the aspirations of the continent as a whole. However, despite achievements like the establishment of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), there have been problems in the execution of important projects. Many member countries remain cautious about certain aspects of the plan, particularly when it comes to reducing economic dependency on external resources and addressing corruption. Some believe that the actions necessary for more sustainable growth and deeper integration could jeopardize current international ties or put national economic stability at risk.
This topic will provide an outline for delegates to assess how best to accelerate progress on Agenda 2063 while considering the diverse economic and political realities of African nations. Whether concentrating on technology sharing, governance reforms, or overcoming financial challenges, participants will have to balance the advantages and disadvantages of advancing with the agenda's full execution. How to accomplish Africa's long-term goals without sacrificing the urgent needs of individual countries is the primary topic of discussion.
The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. They can see it when they look out their window or when they turn on their television. They can feel it when they go to work... when they go to church... when they pay their taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over their eyes to blind them from the truth.
However, that world is faltering, as a new, mysterious disturbance in the Matrix has been taking root. Large breaches of awareness are breaking out, with no clear explanation behind it. Given enough time, this could cause the collapse of the entire system, and the reality of billions of humans along with it.
In this committee, delegates will play the role of Agents, tasked with maintaining order in the Matrix. You will have to investigate this disturbance, and answer the question: Is this just a routine resistance activity, or is this part of a larger conspiracy?
Denial is the most predictable of all human responses. Every passing day, this disturbance becomes more dangerous, and the number of humans denying the Matrix grows. With the entire world at stake, how you choose to approach this disturbance will define history for centuries to come. So the question becomes, what will you do about this? Or better yet, what can you do about this?
Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. The human resistance, located outside of the Matrix, is actively trying to undermine the agents’ efforts to keep the Matrix in order. As long as the human resistance is allowed to continue existing, the Matrix will never truly be secure. Will you allow humanity to regain its strength, or will you put a stop to them once and for all?

“God’s in his heaven, all's right in the World.”
The year is 2015, 15 years after the Second Impact wiped out half the Earth’s population and changed its climate forever. Founded in its wake was NERV: an organization that developed the powerful biomechanical Evangelion units in order to defend humanity from the Angels—primordial beings antithetical to humanity and harbingers of a catastrophic Impact.
As NERV officials and stakeholders stationed in the fortress city of Tokyo-3, Delegates must fend off the returning threat of Angels or risk another cataclysm. Navigating this world-ending crisis will take creative battle plans and clever resource management—including the young, volatile Evangelion pilots—all while an “instrumental” conspiracy unfolds in the soul of NERV.
Forced to balance the existential threat of Angels with internal power struggles, political pressures, and the fragile psyche of the pilots; each and every delegate’s decisions will have their consequences under the looming threat of a Third Impact…
“Which is better – to have laws and agree, or to hunt and kill?”
-Lord of the Flies
After a plash crash, a group of miscellaneous characters across dystopias find themselves on an isolated island – liberated from all social order. A retelling of the classic “stranded on a deserted area” cliche, this “Lord of the Flies” committee interrogates what makes us human, and how we act when there are no rules. With all power up for grabs at the start of the committee, each delegate is free to pursue their goals – whether it be a social organization or complete chaos and violence.
Without a hierarchy, the group is doomed to descend into chaos; a lack of efficient allocation of food, water, and resources, will push many members of the group to instigate fights amongst each other. The question of government, and more essentially, who will be the leader, has become pressing and substantial. Someone needs to step up to the plate. Do you have what it takes to realize your goals?
Does anything last forever? Utopia on the island can be built over time, but maintaining it would be a different issue. Similarly, notions of a signal fire or building a raft must be consistently worked on to be plausible. Ultimately, the necessary question is if the group can create their own paradise, find their way back into society, or die trying.
The Air nomads were massacred. The Fire Nations' ruthless War to spread their prosperity commences and everyone is an enemy —Or is everyone?
A violent war is declared and nations scramble to defend their livelihoods. The world is thrown into chaos and the very person responsible for maintaining their fragile balance has disappeared. What are the people to do without the avatar? How will they survive amidst a total war and defend against a ruthless enemy keen on a fascist takeover? Delegates, the fate of the world is in your hands. You must win the war at all costs, but not before yourselves. Will you become the worldwide saviour, or choose a different path?
With the world government in panic, the expansion of the fire nation is unquestionable. Land borders are being redrawn, villages occupied, benders kidnapped and supplies taken. The fire nation is creeping upon every nation. Without across-world contact with other nations and struggling domestic populations, what can be done? Every nation left standing needs a plan, if unsuccessful, they will meet their fiery demise.
Morally grey spirits unhappy with the destruction of their tranquillity, what could go wrong? The answer? Anything and everything. Serving only themselves, they are a force beyond control and have the power to shift the tides of any situation. Delegates must tread carefully not to upset these spirits as they are unique beings. The question remains, how do delegates appease the spirits as war efforts continue, and prevent the spirits from unleashing additional chaos while on the quest to defeat the fire nation?
The SCP Foundation is a secret organization that aims to secure anomalous objects, contain them, and study them to see what values they hold to benefit humanity. Contained anomalies or “SCPs” have Object Classes that indicate how hard they are to contain. There are three main classes, along with a couple of miscellaneous ones which won’t be mentioned. “Safe”, meaning the SCP is easy to contain. A simple box to contain the SCP would be an example of a Safe object class. “Euclid”, meaning the SCP is harder to contain, reasons for the difficulty of containment can be due to our lack of knowledge of the SCP, or just the simple fact that the SCP is a bit feisty. The most dangerous, “Keter”, takes extensive resources and planning to contain, often not containing them correctly due to the lack of understanding of the SCP. Some SCPs are so hard to contain in fact, that the SCP foundation simply can not, and some SCPs simply break containment. These SCPs will be the star of this committee, taking in the form of the topics delegates will need to discuss. In this committee, delegates will take the roles of scientists/various other roles with the highest clearance, allowing freedom to do whatever they so desire.
On ██/██/████, a mysterious site that has never been seen before appeared near Big Bend Ranch State Park in Texas, USA. Although in the story online, the SCP has been neutralised. In our timeline, this is not the case, and whatever lurks within continues to do so, with the survivors. To be clear, investigations have not yet been conducted, and mobile task forces have not been sent down yet. The way this SCP will be dealt with will be decided upon and discussed by the delegates.
SCP 354 is a blood-red pool with a blood-like fluid inside, the pool is not biological in nature, but the anomalies emerging from the pool (mostly) are. 9 anomalies are still visible on the document, some notable ones are the following; SCP-354-1 is the first anomaly that emerged from the pool; it was a bat-like anomaly and was neutralized by a mobile task force. SCP-354-3 was a black metallic sphere like the Gravitals from C. M. Kosemen’s All Tomorrows. It emitted concentrated beams of radiation capable of crippling anyone and later killing them. SCP-354-3 was neutralized by a sledgehammer, exploding and causing minor damage to the site. SCP-354-6 was a man of Indian descent who emerged from the pool. Due to ongoing repairs going on at the site, the man was shot on sight. DNA tests later revealed that SCP-354-6 was an ordinary man. The appearance of these creatures (aside from SCP-354-6) can cause extreme damage and the repeated repairs will create a major hole in the foundation’s wallet. If SCP-354 is contained and resolved permanently, additional funding will be available for future projects.
Although Site 25 may not exist before this passage was written, it exists now. Site 25 is a containment site located in British Columbia. Various SCPs were contained and researched there. Unfortunately, due to ██████ as well as ████████, various SCPs broke containment and are roaming the site. If action isn’t taken, various SCPs may exit the site, leaving their wrath behind. This fictional Site 25 will feature various popular SCPs of all classes as well as SCPs that may be of use to you delegates.
The 1930 New York Underworld is a committee of prominent crime bosses, mobsters, hitmen, moles, and corrupt public figures working toward their respective interests. Broadly, the congregation serves as a platform to forge alliances and create consensus or compromise on critical issues afflicting the criminal society. However, the matter of who to trust is a precarious task with betrayals, blackmail, and bribery rampant. Meanwhile, Long-neglected tensions internal and external to gangs threaten to start the most bloody conflict the New York streets have hitherto seen. Will accord be found? If not, who will be found left standing?
Reina is dead, and his men are now Maranzano’s. Masseria, once the undisputed king of the New York Underworld, is seeing the beginning of his empire’s crumble at the hands of a rising challenger: Salvatore Maranzano. More defections will be coming if Masseria doesn’t take action immediately, but is pulling out all his guns and allies the select move? And who is he sure will fight for him? For Maranzano? Increasing dissent among mobsters, especially the newer ‘Young Turks,’ along with power-hungry rival criminal organizations could mean a multi-faceted war which anybody could emerge victorious from.
Anything can be done in the New York Underworld, as long as the right price is paid. Unfortunately, the onslaught of the Great Depression has left businesses struggling and the large gangs who extort them unable to fund their traditional third-party bribes for allyship, protections, and… special favours. At the same time, a bloody war is an open window of opportunity for any ambitious mobster, hitman, corrupt public figure, or even defecting mole to get their hands dirty. Whoever they are, their power is not something unnoticed by Masseria and Maranzano’s gangs. The question is what the committee decides is appropriate for them to interfere in… and whether they listen.
The year is 1997. A perfect fairytale has turned awry as the princess captures the world's heart. The most powerful - and dysfunctional - family in the world has found themselves losing the favour of their own people... And the judging eyes of millions are hyper focused on every slip up they make.
Pressure is bubbling under the surface, and in a matter of moments, it boils over.
Princess Diana has tragically passed away, leaving the world in intense grief. While a stiff upper lip must be maintained under the public’s sharp gaze, behind closed doors the Windsor's are still reeling from the shock of her death. Pressure continues to build from all sides as the Family & their staff must navigate this ever-changing landscape… and when pressure builds, sometimes the only thing left to do is turn on one another
The Royal Family has found itself immensely unpopular with the public after their seemingly cold response to the death of Diana. The media are taking every opportunity possible to push their way into the palace walls. With all this negative attention compounding, the public is beginning to question more than ever before: do the people at the forefront of the most powerful Monarchy in the entire world even deserve to be there?
When pressure builds from the outside in, it will naturally build from the inside out. Blame is being thrown around to every member of the Royal Family and their staff as panic begins to set in. What has always defined the Royals has been the aura of mystery that seems to surround them… but now, the public is demanding something far more difficult to provide: vulnerability. You must decide if the family will stick with tradition and risk being viewed as cold, or change with the times and risk being viewed as human, something that could prove to be far more dangerous.
The battle of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775, sparked the start of a revolution that will change the course of American history. What began as a mission by British forces to seize colonial weapon stockpiles quickly escalated into open conflict, as colonial militias, enraged by years of taxation without representation and growing British oppression, stood their ground. The first shots were fired, and what was a growing political dispute erupted into the start of the American Revolutionary War.
The American colonies now face a pivotal moment: will they unite for independence or reconcile with the British Crown? King George III views the colonies as a threat to his order and has sent forces to crush the resistance, while the Continental Congress debates its next move—diplomacy, war, or full independence. In this committee, you'll step into 1775 as Colonial leaders, navigating alliances, strategy, and key decisions that will shape the American Revolution. Will you broker for peace, push for war, or fight for independence?
History is watching—are you ready to take command?
As tensions rise following the battle of Lexington and Concord, the Continental Congress is divided. Some believe that war with Britain can and should be avoided, advocating for a diplomatic approach to address issues while still being loyal to the Crown. Although reconciliation is the more measured path to avoid the uncertainty and consequences of war, will negotiation be enough to address the colonies’ problems?
After years of conflict with Britain, the call for independence gains momentum. Colonial leaders increasingly view full separation from the British Crown as the only path to obtaining their rights and autonomy. Advocates argue that the colonies must break free to establish their own government and avoid further oppression. This shift raises questions: Are the colonies prepared to face the challenges that come with war? As the prospect of independence looms, congress faces critical decisions about organizing a unified government.
Following the First World War, Eastern Europe was, to put it mildly, launched into a bloody power vacuum. The fall of the Russian, Austrian and German empires, as well as the Wilsonian idea of self-determination, led nationalists across the region to proclaim their own states. Yet few of these states would be as ambitious or as consequential as the Second Polish Republic.
During this committee, delegates will take on the role of Polish politicians, government officials, and military officers as they work together to establish Poland’s borders and decide its future. Their primary objective will be to ensure the creation of a strong Polish state with borders as close as possible to those of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Meanwhile, the secondary objective of delegates would be to ensure that this Polish state conforms to their character’s ideology.
Poland once ruled a great empire, spanning from the Black Sea to the Baltic. Although much of this territory is not inhabited by ethnic Poles, Polish minorities are scattered throughout the region. Some politicians dream of restoring Poland to its former sized, while others decry this as unrealistic. From its base in Warsaw, the Polish government must decide how much land they wish to claim. Will you abandon your countrymen, or will you risk the entire nation to include them?
The old Poland was an elective monarchy dominated by the powerful magnates. This form of government means that the country has no ruling dynasty to return to the country and claim its throne. Already, Joseph Piłsudski, the most powerful man in Poland, has declared Poland to be a republic. However, the form of this republic remains to be established. Some argue that a strongman would best rule Poland. Meanwhile others believe that they should be built on liberal Western principles, such as those of England. Finally, a minority of Poles look east and take inspiration from Lenin’s revolution. On top of this already confusing situation is the status of the country’s ethnic minorities. In 1919, Eastern Europe is the opposite of ethnically homogeneous. Any Polish state would incorporate large numbers of Ukrainians, Germans, Jews, Lithuanians, etc. There remain a variety of opinions regarding what privileges and rights these groups should be given. What path will you take in the treacherous political waters of Poland?
"If it ain't Boeing, I ain't going"
There was once a time when The Boeing Company held a reputation so strong that this saying became common among loyal flyers. It was the pioneering force in the aviation industry, shaping the very future of flight with its groundbreaking engineering. However, today, the company finds itself in an exceedingly different place. Following two fatal crashes of its 737 MAX aircraft killing hundreds, Boeing is under sharp criticism from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, Congress, pilot and airline unions, and its shareholders. As members of the company’s Board of Directors, you are tasked with attempting to pull Boeing out of its current scandal to minimize financial losses and damage to its reputation. If successful, you could restore the confidence that once made Boeing a symbol of safety and glorious innovation in aviation.
When Lion Air Flight 610, a B737 MAX-8 aircraft crashed into the Java Sea in October of 2018, it was the deadliest air accident involving all variants of the Boeing 737. Just a few months later, Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, operated by the same aircraft, crashed six minutes after takeoff. Following these two crashes, intense turmoil was sparked on a global scale. Boeing's safety practices and regulatory oversight were consequently put into severe question. You, delegates, must determine and address the root causes of these crashes as well as their repercussions on the broader airline industry. You must determine which parties are to blame and make instrumental decisions that will forever shape the future of The Boeing Company.
Historically, Boeing and Airbus, a European planemaker, have been engaged in a dynamic and competitive duopoly in the aerospace industry. Recent setbacks Boeing has had to face, namely the current scandal have aggressively hindered its ability to compete effectively with Airbus. Capitalizing on these complications, Airbus has seen a notable increase in market share, with bolstered sales of its own aircrafts. To ensure the long-term survival and prosperity of The Boeing Company, delegates must not only address its current scandal but also implement a strategy to effectively counter Airbus’ competitive advances to reclaim Boeing’s position as the leader in the industry.

Established in 1945, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads the global effort to defeat hunger and malnutrition, with a particular focus on food security for all. Being the leading UN organization in agriculture, better nutrition, and rural development, FAO takes center stage in efforts toward resolving food scarcity, environmental degradation, ethical responsibilities, and inequality in food distribution. As a specialized agency, delegates in the FAO will explore sustainable food systems, and work on generating reliable production that delivers efficiency and conservation.
Food insecurity remains a challenge that most developing nations are facing, where millions of people are continuously suffering from hunger and malnutrition problems due to poverty, climate change, conflict, and poor agricultural infrastructure. This topic will try to engage in how international cooperation can solve food insecurity at its root causes. In this case, it will bring about the use of sustainable agricultural methods, equitable distribution of food, and recognition of policies that enhance access to resources, technology, and education. The aim will be the creation of comprehensive solutions that will deliver urgent relief but at the same time build resilience against hunger in the longer term in the most vulnerable regions.
Ethical livestock management is crucial for ensuring animal welfare, sustainability, and economic viability. As global meat production continues to rise, delegates must consider the ethical implications of sustainable agricultural practices. The FAO committee will address several issues within the livestock management industry, including the environmental impacts, inhumane treatment, and challenges within industrialization. While considering the economic value of the current livestock interphase, this topic will delve into the dilemma of whether profitable margins overrule animal welfare. Overall, delegates will address the ethical principles and moral responsibilities in livestock management.
