Euthanasia, or voluntary assisted suicide, has been a debate that cuts across complex and dynamic aspects such as, legal, ethical, human rights, health, religious, economic, spiritual, social and cultural aspects of the civilised society. At the core of this debate is how to reconcile competing values: the desire of individuals to choose to die with dignity when suffering, and the need to uphold the inherent right to life of every person. Laws regarding euthanasia in various countries and territories. Efforts to change government policies on euthanasia of humans in the 20th and 21st centuries have met with limited success in Western countries. While the rights of euthanasia are still examined internationally, this topic has become an important subject in the field of human rights.

At YBFLMUN'26, delegates are expected to collaborate in order to discuss the future rights of euthanasia and the possible regulations in the International Law that will not only make the human rights more inclusive but also respect the cultural and social aspects of all nations involved.
