Refferences 4 WELCOMING LETTER SECRETARY-GENERAL AND UNDER SECRETARY-GENERAL OF MONUA 2020 Delegates, From the Office of the Secretary-General, it is with great plea- sure that we welcome you to the ninth version of the Modelo de Naciones Unidas de la Universidad de los Andes. My name is Jordi Enrique Buitrago Soetendal. I am a fourth- year Law student with a minor in International Studies at the Universidad de los Andes. For MONUA 2020, I have the honour of accomplishing the biggest dream of my MUN career: serv- ing as Secretary-General of MONUA. I have been participating in MUN conferences for the last eight years, and MONUA 2020 is with no doubt the most complex and exciting challenge I have faced during all these years. Besides MUN, I am passion- ate about my career, particularly for Criminal Law, as well as football and literature. On my behalf, I am Santiago Paz Ramos, a fourth-year Eco- nomics major with minors in International Relations and Law. In this edition, I have the huge honor to continue building dreams by your side, by serving as Undersecretary-General for MONUA 2020. I have been participating in these conferences for the past 7 years now, and each day I learn something new, meet one-of-a-kind people, and surpass the barriers of what I think I am capable of. Personally, aside from being deeply passionate about these conferences, I am profoundly inter- ested in Political Economy, Macroeconometrics and music. 5 We aspire to exceed the expectations you have from us in this edition of MONUA, by managing to build up an experience that is equally both welcoming and challenging, so as to en- courage you to leave your comfort zone and challenge the boundaries of the self. For all other matters, we remain at your entire disposition, and we warmly welcome you beforehand to MONUA 2020. Best regards, Jordi Enrique Buitrago Soetendal - Secretary-General for MONUA 2020 Santiago Paz Ramos - Undersecretary-General for MONUA 2020 6 WELCOMING LETTER UNDER SECRETARY-GENERAL FOR UNITED NATIONS Dear all, Be very welcome to the USG for United Nations committees, of the best MUN conferences in Latin America! My name is María Paula Cortés Monsalve, I am majoring in Law and pursu- ing minors in both Photography and International Relations at Universidad de los Andes, and I will be serving as USG for UN Committees in this edition. For the past five years I have embarked myself in participating in conferences that have al- lowed me to have a better grasp of international relations, and to eventually fall in love with the international system. Like- wise, I have managed to understand that this organization, that is more often than not deemed to be useless and bu- reaucratic, each year accomplished unimaginable feats for all those that do not take part within these academic exercises, since it has been responsible of aiding over 25,000 refugees in the world. This is why I consider that our work throughout the five days of the conference is crucial, for it allows us to become aware of the ongoing crises, their implications and possible solutions! Because of the latter, I consider that these conferences are not solely aimed at personifying countries, but rather playing as humans, who act based upon emotions, arguments and alliances. All this based upon the assumption that one day those humans will have the possibility to influ- ence the decision-making processes that have direct reper- cussions upon the international system. Thus, I want to invite you to reflect about one of the last interventions of Kofi An- nan as Secretary-General of the UN, whereby he stated that 7 “Human Rights are your rights. Take them. Defend them. Pro- mote them. Understand them and insist upon them. Nurture them and enrich them… For they are the best of us. Give them life.” Moreover, MONUA 2020 has betted on having committees that represent the dynamics of the international system, thus vindicating the most important organization in the interna- tional system. Nonetheless, it has also sought to be profoundly innovative, characteristic that you will surely find in this USG. Accordingly, the upcoming 5 days will be the most demand- ing ones, for the 4 committees that make up the USG will not only represent 3 out of 6 UN organs, but will also be chaired by the best delegates of the national and international cir- cuits. Therefore, they will expect a wide range of qualities on your behalf, since it will not suffice to merely excel at public speaking, but you will also have to understand that negotia- tion is a fundamental skill that is required to become the best delegate that we have all sought to be at some point. With this in mind, I would like to invite you to challenge yourselves throughout this extraordinary experience, to go beyond what is conventional, and to transcend the barriers that you will surely encounter, since only exceptional delegates (you in- cluded) attend MONUA. I am eager to meet you, and see you on March 19th. María Paula Cortés Monsalve [email protected] 8 WELCOMING LETTER BY THE DAIS Honorable delegates, Our names are Santiago Pérez, María José Medina and Fed- erico Freydell and we have the distinct honor of being your chair for the Security Council in this year’s edition of MONUA. Santiago is a second-year student of Law and Economics at Universidad de los Andes, Federico is an fourth-year student of Jurisprudence at Our Lady of the Rosary University and Majo is a second-year Government student at Universidad de los Andes with a minor in International Studies. Through my experience in MUN (Santiago), I have built a spe- cial love for the Security Council due to two reasons. Firstly, because I consider that the dynamics proposed in the Secu- rity Council are those that approach more to the theoretical and practical discussions of International Public Law. I love International Law, all my projects in the university are within this topic area, hence I appreciate a lot the academic discus- sions around these contents. Secondly, because I was in your place one year ago and for me it was difficult to understand how much information you need to use for the multidisci- plinary conversations that you might have with the rest of the committee, but at the end I realized that this is more about conciliating than debating, and more about building than demounting. Finally, I hope that with this experience you can learn how to use creativity in your favor because the best del- egate is not the one that understands everything, but rather the one that transmits its knowledge in authentic ways. 9 As for me (Majo), I have very high expectations of the com- mittee and the delegates that will be participating in this challenging but extremely fun competition. First of all, it is never enough to reiterate the importance of fair play and in- tegrity in a MONUA committee, however, I will remind you every opportunity I get that it is crucial for us that the del- egates play fair during their participation in the model. Re- garding my personal expectations, as an HNMUN delegate, I tend to appreciate some of the criteria used in this amazing model. It is very important to me for you to work in perfect sync and dynamic with your corresponding couple, and that it shows both in negotiation and in committee interventions. Additionally, academic excellence will be a crucial factor for the committee, not entirely in terms of international law and other disciplines, but also regarding public policy and deci- sion making. As a Government student, there is nothing that I could appreciate more than an applicable integral solution that is based on real evidence! Remember that all of us have different perspectives, interests, and things we look for in a committee, but overall we look for delegates that are authen- tic and that show a great attitude towards this challenging and fun activity! (Federico) The Security Council is one of the most paramount elements of international relationships, being one of, if not the most, powerful international organization on Earth, with the capacity of wide-ranging option that can change interna- tional relations forever, establish strong methods of conflict 10 against threats to peace and security, and even create new figures of international law. Due to this, the responsibility lies heavily on our delegates - you must resolve some of the big- gest issues that the world is facing, and have extreme powers to combat any threats that might arise against the continua- tion of international peace and security. Best regards, Santiago Pérez [email protected] María José Medina [email protected] Federico Freydell [email protected] 11 2. ABOUT THE COMMITTEE A. INTRODUCTION The Security Council is one of the six main organs of the United Nations. According to article 23 of the UN Charter, it is composed of 15 members from which 5 are permanent and 10 shall be elected by the General Assembly in periods of 2 years. The 5 permanent members have veto power, which consists in the power that is conferred to these States to reject a resolution to pass with its vote against. The objective of the Council is, primarily, to maintain international peace and security through resolutions and decisions that are binding for the Member States of the United Nations, following the purposes and principles that the UN Charter establishes for the United Nations, as stated in article 24.

  • UNEP Report on "Greening the Blue Helmets"
    Greening the Blue Helmets Environment, Natural Resources and UN Peacekeeping Operations United Nations Environment Programme About UNEP’s Disasters and Conflicts Programme The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) seeks to minimize threats to human well-being from the environmental causes and consequences of conflicts and disasters. Through its Disasters and Conflicts programme, it conducts field based environmental assessments and strengthens national environmental and resource management capacity in countries affected by conflicts and disasters. Since 1999, UNEP has operated in more than 35 countries and published over 20 environmental assessment reports. Based on this expertise, UNEP is providing technical assistance to a number of UN and international actors, including the Peacebuilding Support Office (PBSO), the Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO), the Department of Field Support (DFS), the UN Development Programme (UNDP) and the European Commission, in assessing the role of natural resources and the environment in conflict and peacebuilding. The main objective of this technical cooperation is to help member states identify conflict risks and peacebuilding opportunities from natural resources and the environment. The aim is to promote the use of natural resources in ways that create jobs, sustain livelihoods and contribute to economic recovery and reconciliation while avoiding new forms of grievances or major environmental degradation. About this report This report aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how peacekeeping operations affect and are affected by natural resources and environmental conditions. The report is divided into two main parts. Part 1 reviews the environmental management of peacekeeping operations and showcases good practices, technologies and behaviours that have already been adopted.

  • The Efficacy of Peacekeeping 1
    BABCOCK: THE EFFICACY OF PEACEKEEPING 79 The Efficacy of Peacekeeping 1 Sandy Babcock Director General Operational Research Department of National Defence, Canada Canadian Forces Experimentation Centre National Defence Headquarters Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Sandy Babcock is pursuing his Ph.D. in history at Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. His doctoral thesis relates to the impact of professionalism on the Royal Canadian Air Force, 1945-1964. He recently retired from the Canadian Forces after a 29-year career and began a second career conducting operational research for the Canadian Department of National Defence. His current employment is with the Canadian Forces Experimentation Centre, where he is the acting team leader responsible for the identification and development of future concepts. ABSTRACT This study seeks to assess the efficacy of United Nations peacekeeping missions. Using qualitative analysis to categorize these missions as successful, partially successful or unsuccessful, the location, timing, duration, size, interstate versus intrastate peacekeeping, and peacekeeper density of missions are then examined against the level of success encountered. The results of this study suggest that some of these factors do provide limited indications of the chances for mission success. INTRODUCTION For more than 50 years, United Nations (UN) peacekeeping missions have been one of the cornerstones of international efforts to restore or support governance and stability. Since

  • China's Contributions to United Nations
    THE DRAGON WITH THE BLUE BERET: CHINA’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO UNITED NATIONS PEACEKEEPING OPERATIONS by Daniel Hayes Griffith B.A., The University of Oregon, 2009 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Political Science) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2010 © Daniel Hayes Griffith, 2010 Abstract Recently, academics and policy analysts alike have taken note of the People‘s Republic of China‘s increasing participation in United Nations peacekeeping operations (UNPKO). Since 2003, the overall number of Chinese personnel in UNPKO has climbed dramatically: from 120 in early 2003 to over 2,000 at present. However, while it is relatively easy to determine how many Chinese personnel serve in UNPKO, it is much more difficult to accurately determine China‘s motives for participation in the UN peacekeeping regime and its mission selection criteria. At present, there are three main schools of thought on this subject. Chinese officials and academics tend to argue that the PRC contributes to UNPKO because it is genuinely concerned about promoting international peace and security and alleviating human suffering. Other authors, primarily from the United States, argue that the PRC‘s motives are purely instrumental in nature. China, they contend, sends personnel to missions when doing so can increase the PRC‘s access to natural resources and markets or augment its overall diplomatic and military power. Finally, some authors vaguely contend that China‘s concerns over its international legitimacy play a role in its peacekeeping strategy. This thesis advances a new version of the international legitimacy explanation of Chinese peacekeeping participation.
