Climate change is described as "a cross-cutting and persistent crisis" that "threatens nations' viability and survival. Furthermore, climate change's health effects are" the leading environmental cause of illness and premature death in the world. In his article, climate change is defined as "climate change attributed directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the world's atmosphere. This definition suggests that climate change also includes pollution, such as the resulting gaseous emissions. Activities that complement the level of greenhouse gases that trap the heat and heat of the planet. On the other hand, health is defined as a "situation of full physical, mental and social well-being.  And not only the absence of disease or complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not simply the absence of disease or disease. "

According to UN definitions since 2012, climate change threatens the environment and threatens human health and development in your country. The health consequences of climate change threaten fundamental social and environmental determinants of health. It affects access to clean air, clean water, a nutritious food supply, and a safe and secure shelter. According to the WHO, since 1960, more than 60,000 deaths have been caused by climate-related natural disasters worldwide, which directly affected climate change. As an example of my country, Malnutrition is a critical problem in Ecuador that can lead to numerous long-term difficulties later in life. The poverty that persists generation after generation has resulted in approximately 70% of children living in poor conditions. Children born into poverty typically don’t have the skills, resources, or knowledge needed to succeed. Staggering unemployment and underemployment exacerbate the problems of dealing with poverty. Overcrowded schools and overwhelmed teachers and parents often lead to children falling behind and being unable to catch up. They also recognized the mounting evidence and growing risks that climate change poses to the health and the change of ecosystems and the increasing burden of disease caused by environmental hazards.

Topic: Climate change and health 

country: Ecuador.

Use the template below to ADD 2-paragraphs About the solution to the issue that Ecuador is facing in its climate change and health problems, continuing to use the voice of your country. You must write about the topic in your own words using diplomatic language.

EXAMPLE OF THE NEXT 2 paragraph.

Paragraph 3: Tell Us About What Your Country Has Done About This Topic Nationally

This section ought to summarize your country’s own unique stance on the issue and what they believe the international community should do to resolve the issue. Here, delegates must remember that this area consists of their country’s policy, rather than their own opinion on an issue. If your country does not completely condemn human trafficking, for example, because of their own stakes in the practice, then your policy must reflect that, in spite of your disagreement. Finding speeches from your country’s leaders, scoping out their government’s website, and evaluating their actions in the UN are some ways to develop an understanding of your country’s policy. 

What has your Member State done to address this topic? You can provide specific examples of programs, documents, laws, civil society and NGO work, and other efforts that your specific Member State or Observer has made in relation to this issue. Depending on your country and the topic, this will be a long or short paragraph! To conduct research for this section, use the SPEAR approach:

Speeches: Have government officials in your country made any significant speeches about the topic at hand?

Programs: Has your country created any programs to solve issues related to the topic?

Events: Has your country hosted or sent representatives to any summits or events related to the topic?

Agreements: Has your country signed or ratified any UN resolutions or regional group agreements about the topic?

Reports: Has your country published or contributed to any reports that have information about the topic?

Example:

At its recent 60th session in 2016, the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) discussed the topic of “Women’s empowerment and its link to sustainable development;” Mexico participated in these discussions. Nationally, in 2002, Mexico hosted the UN International Conference on Financing for Development and continues to affirm its support of the financial strategies within the Monterrey Consensus. Mexico has implemented many social and governmental programs to address gender equality and poverty reduction. One example of Mexico’s successful financial strategies for empowering women citizens, microcredit loans, was first discussed at the International Women’s Congress held in Mexico City in 1975; within the last decade, the government has supplied 1.3 million microcredit loans, allowing Mexico to address SDG 1 on eradicating poverty.

Example:

Regionally, the European Union (EU) has emphasized that effective water management is important for all EU countries. Nationally, Poland is proud of the work within its own borders and throughout the world by its government and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Poland is a country considered to have less available in-country water resources than many other European countries; however, 99% of urban citizens and nearly 97% of rural citizens have access to an improved drinking water source. In Poland, a minister has been appointed to consider issues related to water management, and in June 2015, Poland hosted a National Water Forum to discuss access to water in Poland, which encouraged the sharing of ideas through public consultations towards updated Water Management Plans. At the UN Sustainable Development Summit in September 2015, Andrzej Duda, the President of Poland, emphasized the continued need of the international community to address access to water.

Paragraph 4: Propose Solutions & Recommendations

Using the information you’ve gathered in previous sections of the paper, brainstorm your own solutions to the issue based on your country’s perspective. Could you create a new program, or further develop another one? Could you provide aid to an area, and at what cost? Will you involve NGOs or peacekeepers? How can you collaborate with other countries?

While each aspect of your position paper is important, proposing solutions to the topic is perhaps the most significant, as it allows you to communicate to other countries what you are willing to commit to on this topic globally. 

Solutions can be both general and specific. Some solutions may be more general to encourage overall directions where additional action can occur in line with your Member State’s positions and/or to point out larger areas that need to be further addressed. In many solutions, however, look to provide specific details by describing the who, what, where, when, and why to make it something that could feasibly be put into action. 

Stuck on ideas? You can look at what has been successful in your own Member State or region, or in another Member State or region, and use those ideas to spark thoughts on solutions to propose going forward. 

Focus on solutions within the committee’s mandate which are also realistic for the committee to carry out in the near future. The mandate specifies what your committee has the power to do and not do, whom it can tell what to do and whom it cannot, what it can discuss, and in what ways it can work. For example, a subsidiary body of ECOSOC could not tell ECOSOC to form a new committee, but it would be able to suggest that ECOSOC consider action; similarly, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean could not tell the Security Council to write a report on the topic of peace and security in the Middle East and North Africa, but it would instead work within its own mandate to discuss topics related to economic development in Latin America and the Caribbean. You can find your committee’s mandate in its founding documents and/or on its website. 

As you propose solutions, also check to make sure they are in line with your Member State’s policies (as much as you are able to determine).

When proposing solutions, also consider where there are existing entities that you can work with rather than creating a new committee or organization for each recommendation – whenever creating something new, you have to consider how it will be created, who will oversee it, how it will be financed, etc. Through research, you can often find an existing committee or organization that you can propose to work with for your new campaign, fund, and so on, rather than creating a new entity.

Example:

The United Kingdom believes that crisis prevention and recovery situations must include gender equality and the participation of women to be fully effective in addressing conflict. The United Kingdom urges Member States to continue aid during times of conflict and to specifically provide aid that will directly help by financing gender equality in areas of conflict. Member States should work together with nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to explicitly address the conditions of women in conflict; this should be done at the regional, national, and local levels. Member States who have committed to providing international development assistance, such as Official Development Assistance (ODA), should remain committed to providing aid, and Member States should support the efforts of UN entities such as UNWomen in order to assure that the assistance given appropriately addresses empowerment and gender equality. In addition, the United Kingdom supports the creation of an UN Programme on Financing for Gender Equality During Times of Conflict. This program will focus on financing opportunities for women in order to increase empowerment and will be facilitated through existing UN-Women efforts. Women’s participation in the settling of national and international conflict directly decreases the occurrences and effects of conflict, and the United Kingdom believes that gender-specific financing that explicitly offers aid for the empowerment of women will advance gender equality and ultimately increase Member States’ abilities to address conflict.

Example

Brazil acknowledges the strong connection between justice and development, and it considers access to justice an issue of sufficient import to merit inclusion in international efforts. Currently, a comprehensive, data-supported profile of access to justice throughout the world is not available; such information is necessary to direct policy efforts in the pursuit of international goals. Brazil recommends that UNDP conduct a year-long study of access to justice in all Member States, focusing on legal outcomes with respect to age, gender, and socioeconomic status; access to legal counsel in urban and rural areas; percentage of population with correct legal documentation; and indicators of corruption. Brazil also calls for Member States to work in conjunction with UNDP and CCPCJ to conduct voluntary, credible investigations within Member States. The investigations will collect the testimonies of victims, witnesses, and perpetrators, while also addressing country-specific human rights violations. The findings from the investigations, with results from the study, will contribute to a comprehensive report and drive efforts to pursue policies that foster access to justice for all and thereby further build democratic governance.
