This year we will focus on how the UN can help build peaceful and just societies in the aftermath of atrocities and political upheaval. With the theme UN+Breakable, we will focus on the historical setting of post-cold war eastern Europe. At this conference, you’ll be able to debate and solve global issues all from the perspective of a member state of the United Nations Security Council to discuss issues concerning war and peace in the 21st century.

ABOUT UN YOUTH
UN Youth is a non-profit organisation that provides civics education outside the traditional classroom context. Through fun workshops and conferences, we engage youth in the most pressing affairs of their country and the international community. Our goal is to inspire young New Zealanders to be active, global citizens. Global citizenship exists in an incredibly diverse range of forms, and UN Youth provides opportunities for delegates to develop their own form of active citizenship. Throughout Aotearoa, our work equips young people to become informed, engaged, and critical New Zealanders who understand their global context and the connections between the local and the global. Annually, over 3000 young New Zealanders from Northland to Southland attend a UN Youth event, run by a body of over 150 volunteers across the country who dedicate many hours of their time to engaging young people and growing the organisation.
