  • • Nos Últimos Dias, Jair Bolsonaro Intensificou a Distribuição De Material Pelo Whatsapp E Também a Presença Nas Redes Sociais
    • Nos últimos dias, Jair Bolsonaro intensificou a distribuição de material pelo WhatsApp e também a presença nas redes sociais. É o candidato que mais se mexe e conta com uma estrutura cada vez mais profissional. • Os irmãos Marinho cobraram de Luciano Huck uma decisão se ele sai ou não candidato. E flertam com o ministro do STF Luís Roberto Barroso. • O PPS quer Luciano Huck, mas sofre com a escassez de dinheiro e de tempo de TV. Seu plano B se chama Cristovam Buarque, que lançou seu nome para a presidência e propõe fazer do jornalista Ricardo Noblat candidato ao Senado por Brasília. Noblat gosta da ideia de herdar a cadeira de Cristovam e tem até abril para se filiar ao PPS. • No PSB, é enorme a expectativa pela filiação do ex-ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) Joaquim Barbosa, outro potencial candidato a presidente. Marina Silva está quieta demais. Seu partido, a Rede, não empolga, e sua saúde continua sendo um problema. Ciro Gomes (PDT) ainda não aconteceu, e Henrique Meirelles (PSD) tem mais potencial para vice do que para titular. • No PSDB, esfacelado por brigas internas, o principal nome é o do governador Geraldo Alckmin, até aqui um candidato pesado, como indicam as pesquisas. Aos 86 anos, Fernando Henrique Cardoso já dá sinais de que não acharia ruim se uma candidatura – por pura falta de opção e de preferência por aclamação – acabasse caindo no seu colo. Tanto Michel Temer quanto José Sarney anotaram essa impressão em conversas reservadas. • A candidatura de Lula tem como única proposta repetir o passado e começa a dar sinais de que pode se inviabilizar por fadiga de material.

Past International Actions 7. Bloc positions 8. Possible Solutions 9. QARMAS 10. Position papers 11. References Letter From the Secretary General Dear Delegates and Faculty Advisors, Last year the Casuarinas Debate Team organized our first Model United Nations conference called CASMUN, and once again it is an honor to have you back with us. It has not been too long since the Casuarinas Debate Team started, and since then having our own Model UN competition was a goal: a difficult one, but not impossible to achieve. In 2020, we were planning to organize the conference at our school, following the measures for what appeared to be only a 3 month quarantine. However, because of the Covid-19 pandemic we were forced to organize a virtual conference, which we were able to accomplish through the hard work of our Faculty Advisors and the Casuarinas Debate Team. This year is no different, and with much more experience in hand, we are organizing another virtual conference full of dedication, enthusiasm and transparency in order to offer all delegates a suitable space for self expression and formal discussions. Casuarinas Model UN is the result of the effort of many people, including our Faculty Advisors, your committee chairs, and all the members of our Secretariat who volunteered to participate. Personally, I would like to thank them all in advance for their commitment. Finally, I would like to point out that Model United Nations is about having fun and learning not only about global issues, but also acquiring and improving soft skills that will benefit delegates in the long term.

  • Henrique Meirelles Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB)
    Henrique Meirelles Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB) @meirelles Date of Birth: 31 August, 1945 (age 72) Hometown: Anápolis, Goiás Education: Civil Engineering, University of São Paulo; MBA, Federal University of Rio de Janiero Running mate: Paulo Rabello de Castro - Social Christian Party (PSC) Political History Although Henrique Meirelles has been a prominent voice in Brazilian politics in the past two decades, he began his career in finance, spending 28 years at the U.S.-based multinational BostonBank. In 2002, Meirelles ran successfully for federal deputy as a candidate of the Social Democracy Party (PSDB). The following year he resigned to serve as president of the Brazilian Central Bank under the newly elected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, of the PSDB archrival Workers Party. During his time as the bank’s president, Brazil’s international reserves increased from $37.6 billion to $288.6 billion. Many attribute Brazil’s stability during the 2009 global recession to Meirelles’s influential role in the government. In 2012, Meirelles left government to take senior positions with both Kohiberg Kravis Roberts, a global investment firm, and J&F, a private investment holding company. However, in 2016, he returned as Minister of the Economy in Michel Temer’s newly-formed government, following the impeachment of Lula's successor, President Dilma Rousseff. In 2018, Meirelles stepped down in order to run for president. Corruption Meirelles has not been convicted of any crimes. However, he was among those mentioned in the Paradise Papers, a large set of confidential documents detailing the offshore bank activities of thousands of wealthy individuals.

  • Hofstra University Model United Nations Conference United Nations
    Hofstra University Model United Nations Conference United Nations General Assembly Special Political and Decolonization Committee Fourth Committee Elizabeth Wolf Chairperson 1 Delegates, Welcome to Hofstra University’s Model United Nations Conference! During this amazing conference, you will be spending a lot of time with me during committee sessions so I would just like to let you know a little bit about myself and my involvement with Model UN. I am currently a senior History and Geology double major with a minor in Sustainability at Hofstra. When I am not working on lab reports or working at one of my two jobs, I try to be an active member of the Hofstra community. I am Vice President of the Democrat club on campus that I helped establish my freshman year. I am also involved with the Geology club, Students for a Greener Hofstra, and a divestment campaign. I joined Model UN last spring because my dream career is to work with the United Nations Environmental Programme. HUMUN 2013 was my first Model UN conference. I had the honor of being dais for the Future Crisis Committee, where we worked with the issue of the Arctic race for resources after climate change had opened up a “Northwest Passage” and access to oil reserves in the region many years into the future. Delegates were forced to think of the effects of climate change on different countries and how to handle the new resources available in a way that helped not only individual countries, but also the world as a whole. I’m glad to say that I caught the Model UN “bug” and have come back to chair this year’s SPECPOL committee! During these committee sessions, we will be discussing the treatment of the Kurdish people in Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Turkey and the reformation of the UN Peacekeeping Missions to prevent abuses.
