Security Council

The Security Council, often deemed the most prestigious forum in today’s United Nations, was created in 1945 for the sole purpose of coordinating foreign policy and ensuring international peace and security for all nations. Resolving many conflicts in the past, the United Nations Security Council has always been a place of heated debate and passionate advocation, mostly due to the vast difference in perspective and perception on these divisive issues. With 15 member states (and five permanent members), the Security Council strives to create new laws that promote world peace and prosperity as well as uphold older laws that do the same, enforcing such vital values on all nations of the world today.

To uphold this forum’s reputation of being a place of most heated debate, my esteemed chair Hussien El Feky and I have handpicked a few topics that are sure to split the room in half, with polar opposite opinions on each side. The first topic, “Addressing the use of Lethal Autonomous Weaponry in Warfare,” is an insanely divisive issue in today’s political landscape as nations strive to research newer, more efficient weapons to be used in the case of war. This, however, comes at a cost of many lives, and as such, we need to regulate the use of such lethal weaponry, as well as properly classify them to fully eradicate completely inhumane ones. The other topic, one which we believe will excite many, is “Addressing the China-Taiwan Conflict.” Such a topic is very relevant to the world’s recent events, as the ongoing war between China and Taiwan has become a worldwide issue, and the question of Taiwan’s sanctity remains to be answered.

For this year’s conference, My chair Hussien and I are very excited to be chairing the most important forum in HIAMUN 24’, as we look forward to meeting all our powerful delegates and witnessing passionate and heated debates.
