UN Security Council
(Double Delegate, Advanced)

This UN Security Council committee focuses on addressing human rights challenges in Latin America, examining when systematic violations constitute threats to international peace and security that warrant Security Council intervention. The committee will grapple with complex issues including democratic backsliding in countries like Venezuela and Nicaragua, transnational organized crime's impact on civilian populations, and the tension between respecting national sovereignty and the responsibility to protect vulnerable populations. Delegates will need to navigate competing perspectives on intervention versus non-interference while developing practical mechanisms to address root causes of human rights violations across the region.
