Committee Summary:

The UNHCR committee will contend with the intersection of development, human rights, and long-term solutions to ensure that displaced people are not left behind as we move towards the future. Delegates will first look at creating settlement models that ensure refugees have legal protections and secure land tenure, incorporate refugee housing into national and local development plans, and create settlement models that are socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable. The committee's work will also look into ways to compensate host nations and coordinate global initiatives to facilitate the placement of refugees in nations with limited resources. Drafting forward-looking policy frameworks will rely on coordination with development actors, humanitarian organizations, and private sector stakeholders, as well as accountability and progress monitoring mechanisms under the 2030 Agenda.

Peacekeeping Mission: Plan and evaluate the Kenyan-led peacekeeping mission, focusing on deployment, security, and effectiveness in stabilizing Haiti.

Governance and Elections: Reestablish a functioning government and organize free and fair elections, including interim governance support and election preparation.

The aftermath: Ensure ongoing humanitarian aid and support for government operations after peacekeepers depart, including capacity building and sustainable development.
