United Nations Security Council
Double Delegate
The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) is one of the six principal organs of the United Nations, charged with the primary responsibility of maintaining international peace and security. Composed of five permanent members with veto power and ten elected members, the Council addresses threats such as armed conflict, terrorism, and violations of international law. It has the authority to pass binding resolutions, impose sanctions, authorize peacekeeping missions, and, in certain cases, approve the use of force. As a committee, the UNSC focuses on rapidly evolving global crises, requiring decisive action, diplomatic negotiation, and careful consideration of geopolitical dynamics.
Topic A: Climate-Induced Migration as a Threat to International Peace
Topic B: The Rise of Private Military Companies and Accountability in Conflict
Dear delegates,
Hi everyone, my name is Aviva Flechner, and I’m excited to be chairing the UNSC committee. I’ve been involved in Model UN since 8th grade, and since then, MUN has drawn me to be inspired by the challenge of navigating complex global issues through discussion and collaboration. Some of my most meaningful MUN experiences have been at The Hague where I was able to debate at the World Forum with over 4,000 delegates from around the world.
Outside of MUN, I enjoy spending time at the beach, going on long walks, and I also play the viola in an orchestra. As a chair, I value thoughtful speeches and efficiently paced debate where delegates are willing to think critically, adapt, and engage with the room. The Security Council is a unique committee, and I’m looking forward to seeing how all of you approach your solutions and the ways in they align with your country’s policy.
Aviva Flechner
