UNDP

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is a United Nations agency tasked with helping countries eliminate poverty and achieve sustainable economic growth and human development. UNDP emphasizes on developing local capacity towards long-term self-sufficiency and prosperity. Earthquakes are major natural disasters that occur frequently worldwide. They have several socioeconomic impacts on countries. At first glance, it seems that as if they cause only large volumes of deaths, injuries and destruction. However, in the medium and long run, they cause several other impacts such as income, employment and production losses, increased government expenditures, inflation explosions and income distortions. UNDP has been fully committed to recovery and reconstruction efforts and has been at the forefront of efforts to restore livelihoods, rebuild infrastructure, and ensure that no one is left behind on the path to recovery. But can UNDP deal with a huge humanitarian crisis after a massive disaster? Will the committee be able to help those in need while also dealing with the environmental and infrastructural effects of the natural disaster?

In this semi-crisis committee, delegates will decide the future of the earthquake-affected regions while also dealing with new environmental crises that will challenge their instant decision-making abilities. The future of the nations are now in your hands.
