UNHRC
Agenda
Examining the refugee and IDP crisis in conflict-affected regions
Established as one of the principal bodies dedicated to the promotion and protection of human rights globally, the United Nations Human Rights Council is committed to upholding the dignity and safety of every individual, especially those displaced due to conflict, persecution, and systemic violence. At DSMUN this year, the Council will address the global refugee and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) crisis. Currently, the violent conflict, ethnic targeting, and the collapse of state infrastructure in Sudan have led to long-term displacement, depriving millions of their safety and basic rights. The same is mirrored in other conflict regions, making long-term displacement a tragic recurring reality globally.
Delegates must examine both the causes and consequences of the same, ranging from statelessness to political instability, and propose viable solutions that prioritize sustainable reintegration, regional cooperation, and the protection of human rights. The council encourages comprehensive approaches that transcend temporary aid and work towards lasting peace and security for those affected. The Executive Board encourages delegates to work collaboratively, act compassionately, and think critically to build an inclusive framework for one of the world's most critical humanitarian challenges.
