About

a Physical International Model UN Conference in Taiwan in a decade

InterMUN, with its full name International Youth x Internet, is an organization that provides a platform for teenagers around the world to develop their ideas and contribute to society by primarily working on Model United Nations projects. InterMUN launched its first project in June 2020. Initially, InterMUN held an online conference to accommodate Model UN delegates in the face of COVID-19, as nearly all conferences were canceled due to the pandemic. The primary mandate of InterMUN is to facilitate delegates' participation in global events and debates regarding COVID-19, as well as to donate all fees to the organization World Vision Indonesia (Wahana Visi), which has been working on social and global issues for many years. As physical action, delegate fees can be donated to the society; along with speaking out their thoughts, delegates can make a difference through words and actions. 

With the success of this event throughout the past three years, InterMUN endeavored to pioneer online MUN and invited more people to join our crusade. InterMUN collaborates with NGOs and organizations worldwide to achieve social justice and share resources, forming the MUN globalization program, which allows high school and college students to teach English in remote Taiwanese areas. We aim to raise awareness and influence the international community by cooperating with countries worldwide. As for InterMUN's fourth year, we aim to bring elites from around the world together to contribute positively to society by holding a physical international conference in Taiwan in 2023.

    The Right to Self-Determination

    About the committee

    What does it mean to have the right to self-determination? In the context of decolonization, it might mean “to be free from alien subjugation”. In terms of the right as a principle, the right to self-determination stands in symmetry with the concept of liberty - to be free to exist, and free from intervention. However, in the context of law, this is no longer a question of values, but a question of definition, of its constituents, effect, enforcement, status, and relationship with current-existing law. Do we have a definition to the right of self-determination? Who are the “peoples” eligible to the right? What does it mean to be able to “determine one’s own political status” and “to pursue their economic, social, and cultural development”? What happens if the right conflicts with the principles of territorial integrity and sovereignty? Is the right customary, 𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙖 𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣, or 𝙟𝙪𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙣? These are all underlying questions that await your answer. Our issue touches upon the fundamental relationship between individuals, communities, and states, challenging delegates to structure their arguments through the interweaved descriptives and normatives of international law, to interpret the issue, both as an expert, and as a country representative.

    About the committee

    Globalization has brought mankind to new heights. Under a neoliberal world order, globalization has allowed us to turn everything into export and import. Everything has a price, and this does include people. The Asia and Pacific Region has the highest amount of people that have fallen victim to forced labor and human trafficking, sinister and morbid forms of organized crime. There are roughly 49.6 million human beings logged in the cogs of modern slavery and of that populace, 27.6 million are under the wing of forced labor. Millions are spread into commercial sexual exploitation, state-sanctioned forced labor, and private-sector labor exploitation. Forced labor, a form of human trafficking, happens when people are made to work against their will through fraudulent, forceful, or coercive manners. Traffickers do not discriminate, anyone can be a potential victim of human trafficking. InterMUN challenges its delegates to prod into these macabre organized crimes to unearth the who’s, what’s, and why’s of the Asia and the Pacific Region’s strategies to eliminate such situations, unsheath the answers to the questions on why such incidences continue to run amok in the region, and what are the proponents, catalysts, and factors that continue to push the hands of human trafficking and forced labor forward.
