Disarmament and International Security Committee
Double Delegate
The Disarmament and International Security Committee, the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly, is the primary multilateral forum for addressing the world's most pressing challenges to international peace and security. Established as one of the six main committees of the General Assembly, DISEC is tasked with addressing questions related to disarmament, global arms control, and the regulation of conventional and unconventional weapons. The committee covers an expansive mandate that spans nuclear nonproliferation, the proliferation of small arms and light weapons, the militarization of emerging technologies, and the development of norms governing warfare in new domains such as cyber and outer space.
Topic A: Sustainable Urban Development for Risk Reduction
Topic B: Artificial Intelligence Integration into Nuclear Arsenals
