Act Now: Save today our tomorrow
In 2015, the world committed to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) so that, by 2030, it would be possible to guarantee a future for people and the planet, promoting peace, prosperity, and partnerships. However, in 2024, less than a decade until the SDGs due date, the world is far from achieving this promise. In this context, FAMUN 2024 invites its participants to join the United Nations “Act Now” campaign, with the purpose of inspiring people and institutions to accelerate the implementation of the SDGs to achieve a healthy planet, just societies, a better economy, and a world working together. It is a fact that we have no more time to argue, look for someone to blame, or decide who is right or wrong. Our current situation is marked by the urgency of the climate, economic, political, and social crises, which call for immediate action. Join us to act now. Let’s save today our tomorrow!

ASSEMBLEIA DAS NAÇÕES UNIDAS PARA O MEIO AMBIENTE
Soluções baseadas na natureza para apoiar o desenvolvimento sustentável
Ensino Médio | Português
A Assembleia das Nações Unidas para o Meio Ambiente (UNEA) foi criada em 2012 como um órgão de decisão de alto nível sediada em Nairobi-Quênia, com o mandato de promover políticas e legislação ambientais internacionais. Reconhecendo a importância de fortalecer ações em prol da natureza para enfrentar os grandes desafios à implementação da Agenda 2030 e de seus 17 Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) – como as mudanças climáticas, a perda de biodiversidade, a disponibilidade de água e a segurança alimentar -, a UNEA abordou o tema “Soluções baseadas na natureza para apoiar o desenvolvimento sustentável” pela primeira vez em 2022. O principal objetivo das deliberações da UNEA foi chegar em acordo sobre uma definição comum de soluções baseadas na natureza: ações para proteger e utilizar de forma sustentável os ecossistemas ao mesmo tempo que lidam com desafios sociais, econômicos e ambientais para a realização dos 17 ODS. No entanto, o conceito permanece aberto para discussão, uma vez que governos, sociedade civil e setor privado têm diferentes entendimentos sobre o que são as soluções baseadas na natureza e como elas podem enfrentar estes desafios. No FAMUN 2024, os delegados devem aprofundar o consenso sobre o conceito e elaborar uma estratégia para sua implementação, baseada em melhores práticas que estejam verdadeiramente em harmonia com a Natureza e na incorporação do conhecimento ecológico dos povos indígenas e comunidades tradicionais.

UNITED NATIONS ENVIRONMENT ASSEMBLY
Nature-based solutions for supporting sustainable development
High School | English
The United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) was created in 2012 as a high-level decision-making body based in Nairobi-Kenya, with the mandate to promote international environmental policies and environmental law. Recognizing the importance of strengthening actions for nature to address major challenges to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – such as climate change, biodiversity loss, water availability, and food security -, UNEA addressed the topic “Nature-based solutions for supporting sustainable development” for the first time in 2022. The main goal of UNEA’s deliberations was to agree on a common definition of Nature-based solutions: Actions to protect and sustainably use ecosystems while addressing social, economic, and environmental challenges to the achievement of the 17 SDGs. However, the concept remains open to discussion, as governments, civil society, and the private sector have different understandings about Nature-based solutions and how they can tackle these challenges. In FAMUN 2024, delegates must further the consensus on the concept and design a strategy for the implementation of this approach, based on best practices that are truly in harmony with Nature and incorporate the ecological knowledge of indigenous peoples and traditional communities.

CONSELHO DE SEGURANÇA DAS NAÇÕES UNIDAS
Crianças e conflitos armados no Território Palestino Ocupado
Ensino Médio | Português
O Conselho de Segurança das Nações Unidas (CSNU) adotou sua primeira resolução sobre Crianças e conflitos armados em 1999, reconhecendo os graves e numerosos efeitos que os conflitos armados têm sobre as crianças. A resolução identificou e condenou seis graves violações dos direitos das crianças cometidas pelas partes em um conflito: recrutamento e utilização, assassinato e mutilação, estupro e outras formas de violência sexual, sequestro de crianças, ataques a escolas e hospitais e recusa de ajuda humanitária. As violações cometidas contra crianças no Território Palestino Ocupado (Faixa de Gaza, Cisjordânia e Jerusalém Oriental) foram denunciadas pelo Secretário-Geral da ONU e, desde 7 de outubro de 2023, agências, fundos e programas da ONU denunciaram violações dos direitos humanos cometidas contra as crianças na Faixa de Gaza, incluindo ataques a escolas e hospitais, destruição generalizada de infraestrutura civil, deslocamento forçado, grave escassez de alimentos, água e medicamentos, detenção arbitrária de crianças, entre outros. Neste grave contexto, os delegados do FAMUN 2024 devem agir agora para proteger os direitos das crianças e pôr fim às graves violações cometidas contra elas no Território Palestino Ocupado.

UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL
Children and Armed Conflict in the Occupied Palestinian Territory
High School | English
The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) adopted its first resolution on Children and armed conflict in 1999, recognizing the severe and numerous effects that armed conflict has on children. The resolution identified and condemned six grave violations of the rights of children committed by the parties in conflict: recruitment and use, killing and maiming, rape and other forms of sexual violence, abduction of children, attacks on schools and hospitals, and denial of humanitarian access. Violations against children committed in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Gaza Strip, West Bank, and East Jerusalem) have been reported by the UN Secretary-General and, since 7 October 2023, UN agencies, funds, and programs have denounced violations of human rights committed against children in the Gaza Strip, including attacks on schools and hospitals, widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure, forced displacement, severe shortages of food, water, and medicine, arbitrary detention of children, amongst others. In this grave context, FAMUN 2024 delegates must act now to protect children’s rights and stop the grave violations committed against them in the Palestinian Occupied Territory.

We’ve prepared interactive activities, fun games, and plenty of music. So, let’s make amends post-simulation, because the gathering is open to all college students.
