Letter from the Secretary-General dear delegates, it is my pleasure and honor to welcome you to the 22nd session of World Model united Nations! My name is Charlene Wong, and i am the Secretary-General of WorldMuN 2013. Within this document you will find the study guide for your committee. The conference staff for WorldMUN 2013 has been working tirelessly over the past months to provide you with an unparalleled conference experience, beginning with this guide. Each Head Chair has researched extensively to provide you with a foundation for each committee’s topic areas. We encourage you to use this study guide as the starting point for your exploration of your committee’s topics, and your country or character’s policies. The WorldMUN Spirit invites you to step into the shoes of your country or character, and to immerse yourself in the committee by researching and developing a full understanding of the issues, perspectives, and possible solutions on the table. We offer several additional resources online, including our WorldMuN 101 Guide and Rules of Procedure, updated for this year. Both are available at www.worldmun.org. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your Head Chair or Under-Secretary-General. Please enjoy reading this study guide, and I look forward to meeting you in Melbourne in March! Sincerely, Charlene S.

Letter from the Under-Secretary-General dear delegates, it is with the utmost honor and pleasure that i welcome you to the Specialized Agencies. the SA holds a special place in the heart of Model united Nations; it is here that crises are born and delegates rise to the challenge to address quickly evolving issues in real-time. With an average size of 20 delegates per committee, the SA promises to deliver an intimate and tight-knit environment where every delegate’s voice can be heard and appreciated. The SA has always made a firm commitment to substantive excellence and lifelike simulations. The first measure of that promise starts here with this study guide. Your chair has worked tirelessly over these past few months pouring over books in deep Harvard dungeons to breathe life into these topics. I am so proud of their work and hope you make the most of this initial resource to inspire and guide your preparation for WorldMuN. Come March, your chair and the junior staff will be working to deliver a MUN simulation that raises the bar of your delegate experience. All that being said, the SA would be nothing without you, her committed delegates, who challenge and dedicate themselves to addressing head-on the world’s greatest problems, both past, present, and future. With ample preparation, devotion, and creativity, you will find success in this SA home. As a former MUN delegate and SA staffer, I know what it means to live and breathe a thrilling and informative MUN experience. Along with our chairs and junior staff, I hope to deliver that same experience to you all. Take care, and I cannot wait to meet you in person in Melbourne! Sincerely, Michael Chilazi under-Secretary-General of the Specialized Agencies World Model united Nations 2013 sa@worldmun.org Melbourne Host Directorate PTY LTD | Office of Media and Design 5
