United Nations Children Fund

Topic Summary

In UNICEF, delegates will examine a global response to one of the world’s most pressing issues: childhood hunger and malnutrition. As global food systems continue to be strained, it has become essential to ensure that every child has access to safe and nutritious food in alignment with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In the October session, delegates will examine the history of childhood hunger and malnutrition and evaluate past actions of UNICEF in this problem. In the December session, delegates will examine the challenges of food waste, food recovery, and farmland restoration in connection with childhood hunger. Delegates will work to establish comprehensive and sustainable solutions to this global food crisis.
