Letter from the executive board

Dear Delegates,

On behalf of the Executive Board, we extend a warm welcome to each and every one of you and congratulate you on being part of the World Health Organisation (WHO) for the Don Bosco International School Model United Nations’ 3rd iteration.

Whether you’re a first-timer or an avid MUN-er, we promise to give you an amazing committee experience, filled with heated debates and diplomatic discussions. The World Health Organisation (WHO) connects nations, people and partners to promote health, prevent diseases and provide access to healthcare. We believe in giving everyone a chance to live a safe and healthy life.

A MUN teaches you leadership skills and gives you a platform to discuss relevant global issues. This committee provides every delegate with a platform to share your thoughts on humanitarian issues, develop your confidence and help you step out of your comfort zone by conveying your thoughts through diplomatic dialogue. MUN is all about engaging debates, learning new things, and developing your own knowledge, in a fun way. We expect useful points and questions raised by delegates in committee to improve the overall quality of our conference.

We urge you to thoroughly go through our study guide as it will help build the base of your research and debate.However, do not limit your research to this study guide. Lastly, please feel free to approach us if you have any queries.

We hope to see you on the day of the conference and give you a fun-filled MUN experience!

Yours sincerely,

The Executive Board of the World Health Organisation (WHO),

Hridhan Ratanghayra, Naavya Shah, and Mahika Kaur Misra.

Exploring the agenda

The chronicles of history have witnessed the catastrophic relationship between military conflicts and health crises. Throughout the 20th and the 21st century, a plethora of global conflicts have presented us with numerous health crises around the world, aid depletion and worldwide economic instability. The striking increase in armed conflicts, which in turn lead to health and vaccination crises around the world have yielded negative results for countries and unions alike. Conflicts like Israel-Palestine, Russia-Ukraine, and the Sudan Civil War have all contributed to the global platform towards healthcare and vaccination crises. Delegates of the WHO must come up with effective solutions that benefit the global community as a whole and contribute to the decline of health issues due to conflicts.
