Agenda- addressing the current global fuel crisis and its environmental and socioeconomic impact on developing countries.
Commitee- UNEA
country- Brazil
Brazil is expanding oil production while promoting renewables. Brazil uses 15% of the oil revenue to fund renewable energy. Should i mention we expand oil production in my gsl? If yes should i also say that this is used to fund renewable transfer and its a necessity because of a lack of proper climate finance
Actually GSL:
Honourable Chair, distinguished delegates,
For developing nations, a fuel crisis is not just about fuel. The crisis is stalling economic growth in developing nations and also preventing them from allocating funds to renewable energy. Developing nations should not have to choose between a transition to clean energy and economic survival.
Brazil’s success with renewable technologies such as sugarcane ethanol and flex-fuel which power 80% of Brazilian passenger vehicles, have proven to be efficient tools by cutting emissions up to 90% compared to traditional fossil fuels while also allowing for more control over oil shocks. The fuel crisis proves how, for developing countries, being excessively reliant on fossil fuels for energy can have both environmental and economic risks. Developing nations require diversified and localised renewable energy sources.
To obtain these energy sources, developing nations require more funds than they currently have and according to the UN, need up to $2.5 trillion annually for climate goals, yet current pledges reach only $300 billion annually. Additionally, up to 70% of this funding arrives as loans and debt rather than direct aid, further adding to the burden on The Global South.
To bridge this gap, Brazil demands an overhaul of climate finance. We call for grants over loans and mandatory technology sharing frameworks. The UNEA must democratise tools such as flex-fuel implementation, empowering The Global South to lead its own green transition without sacrificing their economy.

Responding to reports of the death of a Tibetan man following an apparent act of self-immolation outside the United Nations headquarters in New York, Amnesty International’s Deputy Regional Director Sarah Brooks said:
“Our thoughts are with everyone who knew and loved the man who has died and the broader Tibetan community. Self-immolation as protest by Tibetans has persisted for many years, and it does not happen in a vacuum. It reflects the depth of desperation felt by people who see no other way to draw attention to ongoing human rights violations.
“This death comes just a day after China’s Ethnic Unity Law entered into force, a law that brazenly pushes non-Han ethnic groups including Tibetans, Uyghurs and Mongolians toward a single, state-defined national identity rather than protecting their distinct cultures and languages.
“This tragedy is a moment for all to reflect on the human cost of these policies: for the Chinese authorities to end their repressive policies in Tibet, including those entrenched by the Ethnic Unity Law, and for other governments to recognize the Law for the dangerous tool of repression that it is.
“The international community must not allow this death to pass without renewed scrutiny of the human rights crisis in Tibet. Chinese authorities must end their repression of Tibetans and allow independent access to the region for UN experts and other independent observers. They must also ensure there are no government reprisals against the family of the man who died, as has happened previously in response to self-immolations by Tibetans.”
Background
According to media reports and Tibetan organizations, a 52-year-old Tibetan man named Lobga Rangzen (also known as Lobsang Palden) died after an apparent act of self-immolation outside the United Nations headquarters in New York on 2 July 2026. Described as a Tibetan activist, he was reportedly carrying a Tibetan flag and calling for freedom for Tibet before setting himself on fire.
Amnesty International has documented decades of human rights violations against Tibetans, including severe restrictions on freedom of religion or belief, freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and cultural rights. Tibetans continue to face pervasive surveillance, arbitrary detention, restrictions on the use of the Tibetan language and the criminalization of peaceful expressions of Tibetan identity.
On 1 July 2026, China’s new Ethnic Unity Law entered into force. Amnesty International warned that the law would further institutionalize policies of forced assimilation targeting Tibetans, Uyghurs and other non-Han ethnic groups, and could strengthen the legal basis for transnational repression, targeting and violating fundamental freedoms of those peacefully advocating for minority rights outside China.
Amnesty International has repeatedly called on the Chinese authorities to end policies that violate the human rights of Tibetans, in concert with Tibetan advocacy groups and with UN experts, and will continue to urge China to grant meaningful and unfettered access to Tibet for UN experts and other independent observers.
Hey everybody!
I've been a part of this subreddit for quite some time and have noticed that the mods here are pretty unresponsive! Since many posts end up going unanswered, u/Whole_Warthog3899 and I, u/Unable-Law1274, are making r/ModelUNHub! We plan to be active moderators who can ensure everyone feels welcome in the new community!
Our goal is to build an active, welcoming community for everyone interested in Model United Nations, whether you're attending your first conference, a seasoned delegate, a chair, or an organizer.
Here's what you can expect:
We want this to be a place where questions actually get answered, discussions stay active, and everyone feels welcome.
If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, we'd love to have you join us at r/ModelUNHub and help us build a thriving MUN community together!
I am really in need of advice and research tips because we’ve received our committees a bit late, there’s 5 days left before the Mun, and it’s my first time in security council so I’m NERVOUS. I’m japan and the topic is The 2026 Gulf Conflict: Authorizing
Military De-escalation and
the Legal Framework for Ceasefire
Enforcement.
I'm going to my first MUN conference in 2 weeks, and something that's really been bugging me is the social aspects, specifically during unmoderated caucuses where you have to walk around and form blocs with people. Obviously I can't avoid doing that, so I need some advice on how to successfully form or join blocs. (And also how to contribute to discussions and agreements about the papers that we'll work on)
(Also, I want to compensate my lack of social skills with good research, so how do I politely let people know that I can back them up with solid research and info as well?)
I have terrible social skills, and it's very unlikely that I'll know people at the conference that I can easily go up to. So unless I get a good country (like one of the big 5 or something), it will be very difficult for me to easily join a group. (Also I'm a naturally blunt, reserved and formal person, please don't say that I should act friendly, bubbly or approachable or else I'll have to uphold that tiring persona for the rest of the conference + 2 days 😭)
The moderators have been 💀 for so long. Do you guys want new ones?
Hi everyone, I need to make a position paper about North Korea. So I was wondering if you could help me since this is going to be my first time, I have zero previous experience. I have no idea how to do a great PP that I can actually send to my committee.
Committee: DISEC
Topic: Deep Sea Mining
It my first time in this app and I am not an english native speaker, sorry if I made some mistakes.
Thanks, I need to submit my position paper maximum july the 5th. So I am in a hurry...
(its tomorrow at im so cooked)

Honourable chair and fellow delegates,
Access to information is not a luxury; in crisis situations, it can be a matter of life and death.
When communication collapses, it is not information that is lost first — it is life. In conflict zones, digital access is no longer a luxury but a lifeline for civilians, medical services, and humanitarian coordination.
Our primary objective is to highlight the need to pursue practical, balanced, and humanitarian-centered solutions. These should include safeguarding communication channels for medical and humanitarian personnel, ensuring that any restrictions are lawful, and promoting international cooperation to protect civilians while respecting legitimate security concerns.
Humanitarian organizations, too, increasingly depend on connectivity to deliver responses at the speed and scale required by emergencies. Connectivity disruptions can hamper their ability to operate and provide assistance.
Our delegation emphasizes the importance of ensuring that hospitals, ambulances, and humanitarian agencies stay connected, essential communication networks must remain active.
Governments must explain and justify restrictions publicly, to avoid violating International Humanitarian law.
Humanitarian organizations, too, increasingly depend on connectivity to deliver responses at the speed and scale required by emergencies. Connectivity disruptions can hamper their ability to operate and provide assistance.
The ICRC acknowledges that the United Nations discourages broad internet shutdowns. However, if any restrictions are imposed, they must remain strictly limited, time-bound, and must never interfere with humanitarian operations or the protection of civilians.
Maintaining connectivity can also be critical for authorities to implement precautions against the effects of attacks, for instance to quickly remove civilians from the vicinity of military objectives, and to share information on how to protect themselves against the dangers resulting from military operations.
Thank you, we yield the remaining time

HOW IS ITT AHH
So, folks, I've recently found some difficulties in finding MUNs and similar events, run on the social media I have (Only Discord and Reddit). I've decided to try running one soon, making a new subreddit for it, and the like, but first, I'd like to see the demand for these types of, well, "conferences" in the community.
My ideal model would be a session every month or so; like a Crisis Committee one month, UNHRC the next. I'd also consider text-based MUN proceedings as an experiment sometime.
Hey guys, which country should I choose for this topic:
Committee: World Health Organization (WHO)
Topic: Artificial Intelligence Reshaping Global Public Health — From Disease Prevention to Health Equity
Hi, I'm starting 9th grade after this summer. I applied for my high school's MUN travel conference team and got in. I think they're doing WUMUNS. I have zero experience whatsoever in Mock UN so any tips before the official meetings start?
I DO CRISIS HELP ME OUT AND TELL ME WHAT ALL I NEED TO SAY / DO IN A HRC THE TOPIC IS PRIVATE MILITARY SECURITY COMPANIES
