My name is Francesca Tiravanti and alongside Vale, I will be your director for this edition of MUNUR. I am currently studying Law at Universidad de Lima (Peru) and this is my second time at this conference. My MUN journey began in school when I joined the debate team, and when I entered University in 2016, I became part of Peruvian Debate Society (PDS). As a delegate, I have traveled to Boston, Panama, Bogota, and Madrid, debating in dierent committees with dierent topics, including the Press Corps (my rst committee ever), so this committee carries great value to me. What I value most about this committee is how challenging it is to highlight not only the skills you will need to communicate what is happening but also to relate and work along with delegates from other committees. Since this a very divergent committee, we expect you to live up to the challenge of broadcasting the day to day events of the conference with creativity and enthusiasm. I hope you are as excited as I am for this journey to begin in November, until then if you have any doubts please feel free to contact us with any questions! See you soon! Francesca Tiravanti 4 COMMITTEE PRESENTATION Valeria Mas Amorós’ letter Hello everyone and welcome to MUNURX! My name is Valeria Mas Amorós and this time, along with Fran, I have the honor of being your director at the UN Journal Committee. Currently, I am a nal year law student at the University of Lima in Peru and I also work at a law rm as a litigation intern, so public speaking is a quality I always look for in delegates. In this case, this committee is particularly special to me because it is where I started my MUN life. Since then, I have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet people from dierent cultures, which has been one of the highlights of my life. erefore, that is exactly the characteristic I appreciate most about MUN Conferences: the connections you end up creating. For this reason, in this Committee, I hope to see this characteristic reected in all of you, by means of the ways in which you integrate the dierent topics that are discussed in each Committee, although at rst glance they seem totally dierent. However, what I expect most from you is that you have fun and enjoy a Conference as multicultural as MUNURX, believe me, that I will have it. So without further do again, I welcome you to our Committee. Please, in case of doubt, don't hesitate to write me or Fran. See you in November! Valeria Mas Amorós 5 HISTORY OF THE COMMITTEE: e history of UN Journal dates back to the beginning of the United Nations itself and by relation, to the creation of the United Nations Correspondents Association (UNCA), founded in 1948 at Lake Success on Long Island, USA. In its inception, it counted with approximately 50 members (from USA and Canada agencies) but now is considered a professional organization of over 200 journalists from over 150 countries, which represents scores of publications, news agencies, and broadcasters from all regions of the world. e UNCA represents the United Nations “press corps”, they have an agreement with the Secretary-General that dates back to 1995, in which the UNCA is recognized as the ocial independent organization in charge of representing and reporting and decisions made at the UN. is committee is annually recognized in a resolution adopted by the General Assembly, under the mandate of the Committee to Review United Nations Public Information Policies and Activities, that was established under the GA Resolution 33/115 in 1978, this is also known as the “Committee on Information”. On resolution 34/182 of 1979, the General Assembly dened what the mandate of this committee would be, establishing it as follows: “To continue to examine United Nations public information policies and activities, in the light of the evolution of international relations, particularly during the past two decades, and of the imperatives of the establishment of the new international economic order and of a new world information and communication order; To evaluate and follow up the eorts made and the progress achieved by the United Nations system in the eld of information and communications; and To promote the establishment of a new, more just and more eective world information and communication order intended to strengthen peace and international understanding and based on the free circulation and wider and better-balanced dissemination of information and to make recommendations thereon to the General Assembly.” (United Nations, 1979) 6 HISTORY OF THE COMMITTEE: Since its creation, the UNCA has worked to bring correspondents from all around the world, diplomats, and departments of public information together, to promote the eciency of journalism and freedom of the press, therefore organizing press conferences, social gatherings, and even an annual awards event.(United Nations Correspondents Association, 2016) Showing the devotion of the UNCA has for publishing the truth and nothing but the truth, their main objective is to promote interconnectivity, by facilitating the contact between a member of the UN and citizens from dierent civilizations. As part of the press corps, in this conference you would have access to every committee that’s UN related (aka, committees of the general assembly and the economic and social council) meaning that you will count with vast information and liberty, you would also be granted full access to acquire any information you would require, for instance, interviews from the delegates, directors, and sta members. 7 THE PROBLEMATIC IN CURRENT JOURNALISM With the growth of the internet, the world has now entered an unprecedented age of technological change. is new digital era has left very few things in society untouched, one of the most aected industries being us, media industry and subsequently journalism. As the media industry has had to adapt to these changing platforms, populations, and behaviors, it has seen the rise of signicant new types of journalism along with the escalation of considerable challenges. Print journalism has seen a decline with the rise of the internet that has only intensied in recent years as it associated with technology. At the same time, forms of digital journalism have grown exponentially and entirely new publications, journals, newspapers, and more have arisen to take advantage of the “Internet Age.” Similarly, older forms of media and print journalism have also adapted and become more digital in nature to address these shifts. e digital platforms that the media industry now utilizes, such as websites and social media outlets, have revolutionized the exchange of information. ey have allowed for the distribution of millions of stories to ow virtually unchecked and uninhibited. As the world has become more accustomed and overwhelmed by the vast amount of media, journalism, and overall information being showcased to them every day (especially online), an entirely new challenge has developed – fake news. “Fake news” also known as media or journalism which encompasses hoaxes, deception, and misinformation is in sharp contrast to the objective or accurate media that the world most often consumes, and wish to encounter. Fake news publish untruthful articles not for the sake of humor but instead for the purpose of driving web trac, gaining internet virality, and ultimately generating prot. To achieve the highest impact, fake news organizations also employ similar journalistic styles as real news organizations. is includes using techniques like article structure and wording, to make it as dicult as possible for individuals to distinguish between fake and real news. ese imitation techniques are further enhanced by fake news organization’s approach of specically gaining the attention of specic groups or individuals who may think similarly or hold the same biases. 8 THE PROBLEMATIC IN CURRENT JOURNALISM ough some may argue that fake news is harmless, the eects that these organizations and articles carry can often be immense. Not only do they spread false information, but they inuence large masses of individuals. is type of inuence can sway national opinions, elections, and can foster disorder or conict between dierent groups of people. For example, Huzlers and World News Daily Report in 2018 reported an average of 9 fake news each. (Pham, 2018) e question then relays with the shift towards digital media and the rise of fake news, what can be done and what is the role that traditional and real media play? A question we encourage you to answer during the conference. One of the reasons that fake news grew so rapidly and became so indistinguishable was that they copied the way that traditional media outlets operated. To, therefore, make the dierence between fake and real news as clear and distinct as possible, any media outlet that considers themselves real news needs to be as objective and truthful as possible in their journalism. Traditional media outlets and real news organizations should publish articles for the sake of honestly informing the population rather than simply just trying to produce revenue. ey should report only events and things they know in certainty and limit biases in their work. 9 PRESS What is a press reporter: A reporter is a delegate who seeks information and knows how to objectively transmit the most relevant aspects of the decisions and problems that are happening in the various committees during the days of the conference.

Because of the diversity of indigenous peoples and the nation-states in which they are situated, it is impossible to address all the myriad boarding school policies both historically and contemporary. Boarding schools have had varying impacts for indigenous peoples.

Cuestiones que se deben responder 8. Documento de Postura 9. Referencias 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.

Topic B: Protection and guarantee of involuntarily displaced people’s human rights and cultural heritage 6. References Dear delegates, faculty advisors and MUN enthusiasts, It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to MUNUR 2016! I am more than excited to serve as this year’s director for SOCHUM. My name is Oriana Roberto and I’m studying chemical engineering at Universidad Simón Bolívar in Caracas, Venezuela. Even though my major is far from what we discuss at MUNs, being a part of WorldMUN is perhaps my favorite way to spend my time. The people, the topics, and the experience are all incredible pieces of a truly phenomenal activity, little did I know that this kind of activity would transform the way I see the world and give me the best weekends of my whole life. My goal for MUNUR 2016 is just that, to transform the way people see the world. I am thrilled to be chairing the Social, Humanitarian, and Cultural Committee of the General Assembly. This year, we have the chance to delve into two of the many current issues affecting people worldwide—social impact of the genetic modification on human embryos and protection and guarantee of involuntarily displaced people human rights and cultural heritage. They are topics of enormous significance, and I hope that each one of you brings a distinctive and incredibly valuable perspective to the conference. I am confident that together we can have the opportunity to shape that change you want to see in the world.

My name is Claudia Herbert Colfer and I will have the pleasure to be the Director of the Special Political and Decolonisation Committee (SPECPOL). I was born in Lima but, currently, I live in the United Kingdom where I study Politics and International Relations at the University of Bath. Aside from academics, I consider MUN to be my favourite extracurricular activity. I have been involved in it since high school and I have participated in PUCP MUN for the past two years: I was delegate of SOCHUM in 2013 and, last year, the Director of the Security Council. Model United Nations is one of the most rewarding activities I have ever done: it is not only a fantastic opportunity to get to know many young and motivated people from all over the world but it also is a great chance to improve negotiation skills and to gain valuable knowledge. I will always be eager to attend as many conferences as possible. Nonetheless, whenever I am not chairing or debating, I love learning new languages, dancing salsa, watching Friends and spending time with friends. I just want to say that I am really excited about this conference and I am sure that the level of debate will be extremely high. I am looking forward to meeting you all in person.
