    Strategic Resources in Humanitarian Crisis: Preventing Exploitation, Ensuring Equity, and Strengthening Resilience

    About the committee

    In times of humanitarian crises, access to essential resources such as food, water, medical supplies, and shelter becomes a matter of life and death. However, the scarcity and mismanagement of these resources often lead to exploitation, inequality, and prolonged suffering. This committee will address the critical challenges of strategic resource allocation through the lens of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. For three days, delegates will craft innovative solutions to ensure that humanitarian aid is delivered efficiently. Join us in shaping a future where resources are managed fairly in times of crisis !

    Harnessing Africa's Strategic Mineral Wealth: Sovereignty, Development, and Combating Exploitation

    About the committee

    Africa is home to some of the world's most valuable resources—cobalt, diamonds, lithium, and other strategic minerals—critical to industries from technology to renewable energy. Yet, these riches often bring conflict, exploitation, and foreign interference, threatening Africa’s sovereignty and sustainable development. This committee will address key challenges, including human rights violations in mining operations, the influence of armed groups and illicit trade in resources, and the growing competition among global powers for control over Africa's minerals. Delegates must propose solutions to combat exploitation, ensure ethical resource management, and reclaim control over Africa’s wealth to drive development and strengthen regional unity. The future of Africa’s resources lies in our hands—can we transform its mineral wealth into a source of peace, prosperity, and independence?

    The Scramble for Space : setting rules for space colonization and extra-terrestrial resource extraction

    About the committee

    At the beginning of the 70’s the balance of power stands completely changed from what it was at the start of the century. Climate change and growing geopolitical tensions have triggered a global economic crisis. To escape the cycle of recession and find new resources to exploit for growth, huge investments have been made in outer space travel. As Humanity now turns its gaze to the stars, whether it will reach them or not depends on you !

    L'ombre du Dragon : L'enjeu des semi-conducteurs au cœur d'une crise diplomatique

    About the committee

    Une cyberattaque massive frappe l’entreprise Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). L’entreprise, contrôlant plus de la moitié de la production mondiale de semi-conducteurs (une ressource critique pour les nouvelles technologies et l’innovation écologique), était un pilier de l’économie Taïwanaise, mais elle se retrouve paralysée depuis plus d’un mois. Les services de renseignements occidentaux accusent un groupe de hackers affiliés au régime de Xi Jinping, ce que le chef d’État dément. Les différents acteurs de ce comité devront réagir en temps réel à l’évolution de la situation, en prenant en compte leurs intérêts et objectifs, ainsi que leur champ d’action.

    Or bleu, or noir : guerre des ressources au Moyen-Orient

    About the committee

    Vous aimez les jeux de rôles et de conquête ? Le WarMUN est fait pour vous ! Le MUNWar est la rencontre du jeu de stratégie et de conquête, sur le modèle d’un Risk complexifié, avec le jeu de rôles : incarnant le chef d’Etat-major d’un pays en guerre, vous affrontez vos adversaires sur une carte dans le but de conquérir un maximum de territoires par la stratégie militaire et diplomatique. Pour cela, vous devrez user à la fois de la confiance et de la ruse en établissant des alliances sans perdre de vue votre intérêt. C’est un jeu de plateau Made in Stras’Diplomacy, qui ne repose en aucun cas sur la chance mais bien sur vos capacités à organiser la négociation avec les autres joueurs, le déplacement de vos troupes et l’investissement dans les ressources. Pour cette édition consacrée aux ressources stratégiques, le WarMUN vous propose de vous immerger dans un conflit au Moyen-Orient mêlant intérêts économiques et dérèglement climatique, autour de la convoitise des Etats pour les ressources pétrolières et des tensions climatiques liées à l’accès à l’eau. Le destin de la région est entre vos mains… Aucune connaissance préalable des enjeux géopolitiques ou du Wargame n’est requise. Négociation, stratégie et gestion des ressources seront vos meilleures armes ! A vous de jouer…
