The United Nations Population Fund was founded for the function of raising awareness and mobilising resources in partnership with governments around the world to promote the reproductive rights and health of women and children. At the onset of the 21st century, the UNFPA conducted two major campaigns, one of which was the highly successful campaign to prevent and and treat obstetric fistulas in more than 50 countries and the other was the active provision of medical supplies and other support to survivors of female genital mutilation. 

 

In the last two decades, while some countries have seen a decline in sexual violence, many have projected a steep increase. Following this MUN’s agenda, we aim to promote stringent policies against sexual violence on women. Along with this, we aim to bring countries with differing views on the treatment of pregnant survivors of sexual violence to a common consensus to empower the establishment and promote robust health provisions and support systems for the victims.

 

The Executive Board would like to extend their best wishes to you, and hopes you have an excellent time full of heated discussion, intellectual rigor and intense argumentation to help tackle the issue of sexual violence.
