Social, Humanitarian, and Cultural Committee (SOCHUM)
The United Nations General Assembly Third Committee focuses its attention on the human rights of social, humanitarian and cultural issues around the world. This committee will have to work together to find effective ways to help those who feel at a disadvantage. Specifically, during CESIMS, the committee will explore the rights of women and children, and racial and economic disparities. Throughout the day, there will be two topics that come together. Topic A will discuss the safety of families living in war zones. The delegates will look at wars from Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East and work together to protect the safety of the innocent people caught in these war zones. Topic B will regard the same countries but will focus on child labor laws within the cultural societies. Delegates will have to incorporate global conflict between using children to grow the economy, as many countries will have their own beliefs and needs. Delegates, it is up to you to generate good discussion and collaborate to find effective solutions to these pressing global issues.
