SHISHUKUNJ NC MUN 2025

The Economic and Social Council

Letter from the Chairperson

Greetings Delegates,

A warm and enthusiastic welcome to the third iteration of the Shishukunj NC MUN! It is truly an honor to serve as your Chairperson for the Economic and Social Council. 

My name is Siya Nagar, an 11th grader, and I have opted for humanities as my mainstream subject, along with legal studies. My interests in politics, diplomacy, painting, and poetry have deepened my appreciation for the nuances of human interaction and the power of thoughtful discourse. Beyond the realm of debate, you might find me engrossed in the captivating plots of crime and thriller movies or perhaps quoting a line or two from Suits. 

I am genuinely thrilled to be a part of this esteemed bureau and committee. I believe with rigorous analysis, and a spirit of collaboration, we can navigate through complexities and strive towards meaningful solutions. 

Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or simply to connect. Remember, MUNs are not just about debate; they are also about building bridges and fostering understanding. I am here to facilitate a productive and enriching experience for each and every one of you. 

I am confident that this session will be marked by insightful discussions, innovative ideas, and a shared commitment to making a difference. I eagerly look forward to embarking on this intellectual journey with you all. 

See you soon! 

Regards,
Siya Nagar
Chairperson

The Economic and Social Council

Committee Description

The Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) is a key UN body that promotes economic and social development worldwide. As a committee, ECOSOC brings together delegates to discuss pressing global issues, foster international cooperation, and develop solutions to complex challenges. With a broad mandate covering sustainable development, poverty eradication, and human rights, ECOSOC plays a vital role in shaping global policies and initiatives. 

Agenda Description

Fast fashion refers to the quick and cheap production of clothing that follows the latest trends. While it allows people to keep pace with style at low prices, it leads to serious problems. Workers in supply chains face poor conditions and low pay. The environment suffers from pollution, waste, and microplastics. Consumers are exposed to harmful materials. This agenda looks at how international trade contributes to these issues and how the ECOSOC can help encourage more ethical and sustainable practices.
