Combating corruption and promoting good governance in economic development

About the committee

Concerns to be handled: In some countries, courts and police are influenced by politics or bribery. Budgets and contracts are often hidden from the public giving us lack of transparency. Organized crime is a big issue, corruption fuels smuggling, trafficking, and money laundering. Citizens lose faith in governments, which destabilizes societies. Corrupt leaders often hide money abroad in tax havens. Main Idea: This committee focuses on one of the biggest barriers to development: corruption. Many countries struggle with bribery in politics, misuse of public funds, unfair courts, and hidden government budgets. When corruption grows, it affects economic growth, creates inequality, and reduces trust in leaders. Delegates must explore: How corruption slows a country’s economic growth How to make courts, police, and government offices more transparent Ways to stop the flow of stolen money hidden in offshore accounts How organized crime takes advantage of weak, corrupt institutions How to rebuild citizens’ confidence in government The goal is for countries to work together on stronger anti-corruption systems, greater transparency, and international cooperation to make development fair for everyone.

Combating hunger and ensuring food security

About the committee

Today, around 735 million people face chronic hunger. Hunger is worse in areas affected by conflict, poverty, climate change and unstable economies. challenges: Conflict and war disrupts farming and food supply chains in countries like Yemen, Sudan and Ukraine. Droughts, floods, and desertification reduce harvest. Poverty and inequality impedes families from obtaining nutritious food. Globally, food waste is a major environmental and food security issue, with estimates suggesting 931 million to 1.3 billion tons of food are wasted annually, with households contributing to about 61 percent of this waste. Hunger is not just lack of food, it can also mean eating low-quality, unhealthy diets. Main Idea: Nearly 735 million people around the world suffer from hunger. Conflicts, climate change, poverty, and food waste contribute to the crisis. WHO is responsible for ensuring populations have nutritious, safe, and adequate food—not just enough calories, but healthy diets. Delegates must explore: * How war disrupts agriculture and food supply chains * How droughts, desertification, and floods reduce food production * How inequality and poverty limit access to nutritious food * How global food waste (up to 1.3 billion tons per year) worsens the crisis * Supporting countries to develop resilient farming and economic systems * Improving childhood nutrition and preventing malnutrition The committee focuses on practical, global health-oriented solutions to prevent hunger and promote long-term food stability.
