GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Joint Special Political and Human Rights CommitteE:
addressing international conflict, political instability, and human rights violations

In the recent 21st century, Member States of the United Nations have faced conflict, political instability, and violations to the rights that were meant to be maintained with the redaction of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. International cooperation is imperative to uphold peacekeeping operations around the globe, protect human rights, and speak up for the voices that have been silenced.

 

This unique joint general assembly format gives the delegates the opportunity to express creative skills, present innovative ideas, and make meaningful connections with topics discussed in debate. Our first subtopic includes the recognition of nations and territories in peacekeeping operations, involved in regional conflict, affected by humanitarian crises, or facing vulnerability. The second covers the protection of human rights in conflict zones and political instability, examining the repercussions of inaction by international partners. Finally, the last subtopic consists of the international response mechanisms in times of need regarding United Nations peacekeeping operations.

 

Together, this intermediate to advanced committee offers delegates the space to engage in real-life conflict, discuss relevant interactions, and give them a sense of action-oriented leadership. Delegates are encouraged to give this committee their all and offer their creative ideas for a successful, fruitful debate.​
