COUNCIL & TOPICS

Established in 2006, it operates under the authority of the United Nations General Assembly and in alignment with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The Transforming Labor Market: Protecting Migrant Rights Amidst a Fast-Changing Labor Demographic.
As global economies experience significant demographic and technological changes, immigrant workers are becoming increasingly vital to labor markets. Many countries rely on foreign labor to fill workforce gaps, especially in sectors facing shortages of skilled workers or dealing with aging populations. However, immigrants often find themselves more vulnerable in their host countries, facing exploitation, precarious employment, and limited access to legal protections. Additionally, barriers to their integration persist due to economic uncertainty, strict immigration laws, and rising nationalist sentiments. Many migrant workers endure difficult conditions, lacking social protections, fair wages, and pathways to legal employment.
Addressing the Arms Race in Outer Space: The Threat of US-China Strategic Competition Militarization to Global Security.
The United Nations Security Council is one of the 6 principal organs of the United Nations, focusing on ensuring international peace and security. It is tasked with establishing peacekeeping operations, enabling international sanctions and authorizing military action. The UNSC consists of 15 member states, who are recognized as the global “Great Powers” who were the victors of World War 2. Permanent members have veto power which have the ability to block any Security Council resolutions, creating a challenging environment in making global security policies.
Arms Race is the terminology for a pattern of competitive acquisition of military capacity between two or more countries. It refers to any military buildup or spending increase by a group of countries, typically driven by conflicting interest and the need to gain an advantage over the other. The U.S. and China hold opposing views on space governance, with the U.S. expanding its military capabilities in space through alliances and satellite jammers, while China opposes such militarization but has developed counter-space weapons to deter U.S. intervention. China has heavily invested in its space program, deploying numerous satellites for military communication, intelligence, and navigation. Citing global security risks, China argues that weaponizing space would disrupt strategic balance and undermine existing arms control agreements. These concerns have led China to enhance its anti-satellite capabilities, emphasizing defense rather than aggression.
