Addressing Chinese Influence on the Global Market

About the committee

💵 We are thrilled to introduce the topic of this year’s ECOFIN Committee - Addressing Chinese Influence on the World Market! 💰 China has without doubt become a major global player in trade as a supplier and as a market; becoming the world's largest exporter of goods in 2009, and the largest trading nation in goods in 2013, which has resulted in an ever-changing relationship with other nations. But what actually is the extent of its influence on the World Market?

About the committee

🕊 The Security Council is back for this fall’s conference, discussing the issue of nuclear disarmament! ☢️ Nuclear weapons have become an imminent threat of our time, even more so in the context of the Russo-Ukranian war.

Combattre l'Abandon Scolaire dans les Pays Africains

About the committee

🇫🇷 Et, enfin, le comité OIF, traitant du sujet du Combattre l'Abandon Scolaire dans les Pays Africains. 📚 Dans les pays africains, environ 40% des élèves quittent l’école avant d’avoir terminé le lycée. Dans des pays en voie de développement, beaucoup d’écoles subissent un sous-financement et les étudiants abandonnent les études pour des raisons allant des problèmes en famille, grossesse chez les adolescentes, à l’usage de drogues et à la criminalité . Pourront les pays africains et ceux des autres continents unir leurs forces pour résoudre ce problème?
