Press Report

DAY 1

To introduce, every country has to read its Opening Speech. As is known, poor kids do have a misery filled life. Some countries have informations about these kind of situations. At least 2 milion children in the Democratic Republic of Congo face death from malnutrition unless aid reaches them. United States of America does not agree with the Islamic Republic Of Iran.

There are countries that are still developing 

information on the subject discussed. Russian Federation has based its opinion on the important fact that more education and schools for children are needed. Help is always welcomed by all countries. Somalia doubled its souldier numbers. Children in conflict zones around the world suffered being used as human shields, killed, maimed and recruited to fight. Rape, forced marriage, abduction and enslavement of children have become standard tactics in conflicts from Syria and Yemen.

Two million children and teenagers are out of school in war-torn Yemen, a fourth of whom have dropped out since the conflict escalated in March 2015. The education of a further 3 million children is at risk as teachers' salaries have not been paid in more than two years. 

For the Child Souldiers, All Israelis are required to perform national service. Men serve as regular soldiers for 36 months, women for 24 months, and officers for an additional 12 months. Reserve duty is obligatory for men up to the age of 40 to 45 and for certain categories of women February 2004, the National Defence Service Law was amended to restrict compulsory recruitment to over-18s. Children are assessed and interviewed for service in the armed forces from the age of 16, and at 17 are issued formal call-up notices. 

Maternal mortality ratio represents the risk associated with each pregnancy. It is calculated as the number of maternal deaths during a given year per 100 000 live births during the same period. Although the measure has traditionally been referred to as a rate it is actually ratio and is now usually called such by researchers & Maternal mortality rate measures both the obstetric risk and the frequency with which women are exposed to this risk. It is calculated as the number of maternal deaths in a given period per 100 000 women of reproductive age. 

Russia has as a principle of thought to worry about girls who have sequels and those who hurt themselves. For them, more access to health networks is better. 

For Al Jazeera's opinion, as a result of what was discussed in the group and based on general information from UNICEF, the suffering of helpless children has a global dimension. Our news keeps in mind that help is always very important. Help those who need help, those who need education, and those who need basic things in life. 

There are countries that give priority to other topics or situations, which is not ideal at this time - especially among frequent discussions about problems involving health, education, and lifestyle. Countries need to continue to position themselves well and with positive thinking to help children. This is very important. Much of the future is in the hands of many. A good position in these aspects is crucial.

DAY 2

The second day of debate in the council UNICEF from AleMUN 2019, proved that everyone present was engaged in the discussion. The subject matter began with what had been said the day before: child soldiers. In the statement by the council’s chairs, Rafaela Pontual and Ada Amaral, both expressed their satisfaction in the participation and involvement of the delegations.  The discussion continued with relevant information. France making campaigns, donating money, resources and 

also giving diplomatic help. Israel with technology, campaigns and donating resources. Some countries like Afghanistan, Colombia, Congo, Iran, Israel, Yemen, Somalia, and Syria have medical assistance ( psychological and physical), educational support, blue helmets, protective measures, donations, NGO´s and programs.

Across Europe and Central Asia, children with disabilities are particularly vulnerable to stigma and discrimination and are often segregated. They may not appear in national statistics, becoming ‘invisible’ to decision-makers, service providers and the public. While data on the estimated 5 million children with disabilities across the region remain scarce, we know they face multiple rights violations, from a lack of early detection or diagnosis of their disabilities to exclusion from education and participation in their communities. The exclusion of children with disabilities is exacerbated when they belong to another disadvantaged group. One example would be a girl with a visible disability who has been trafficked to beg on the streets. Or a Syrian refugee child with disabilities in Turkey, whose family faces poverty. 

Millions of children with disabilities are thought to be out of school across Europe and Central Asia. Many are still excluded from mainstream education and consigned to so-called ‘special schools’. Some teachers still refuse to educate children with disabilities, and some parents fear that their children’s education will suffer if they share the classroom with a child who has a disability.  Many children and adolescents with disabilities are isolated from social activities and participation in their communities – a problem worsened by transport and buildings that remain inaccessible.  

Stigma may stop families from asking for help or information, leaving them unaware of their rights or of any support that is available. Families may struggle to balance earning a living with caring for a child with disabilities - increasing the risk of institutionalization for the child.

As a solution, UNICEF upholds the rights of children with disabilities across Europe and Central Asia, from promoting their best possible care to supporting their education and participation. We support outreach services to families with young children to identify and respond to any disabilities at an early age, giving children a chance to reach their potential and keeping families together. Home-visiting programs – an approach that spans child protection, health and nutrition, and early childhood development – give families support and connect them to specialized services.
