Moderated Caucus Speech Samples

“The delegate of Korea would like to raise a Motion for a 10-minute moderated
caucus, with maximum 2-minute speaking time, on the topic of Education of the
refugee children. (1 min, 45 seconds)’’:

The Delegate of Korea would like to thank the Chair for their recognition,

The right to education is not a luxury it’s a basic human right.

Korea believes that investing in child development from an early age is a critical
factor for a future progressive world. We cannot develop future generations without
imparting education to every child.

Unfortunately, very little has been done on a global level to impart education to
around 50% of 7.1 million refugee children. Honorable Chairs and fellow delegates
this is a reason for us to be worried about and take immediate collective efforts to
solve this problem.

In South Korea, primary and middle school education is compulsory and free for all,
regardless of immigrant status (both legal and illegal).

There are about 165 schools nationwide designated by the Education Ministry that
runs a 6-month preparatory course for foreign students, including those from
immigrant and refugee families.

The Republic of Korea urges countries to invest resources and prioritize assisting the
most vulnerable immigrants residing in immigrant dwellings to assure that no one is
left behind. Countries should formulate laws on right to education covering even
immigrant children. UNHRC should lead from the front and form collaborative
partnerships with local nonprofits in establishing temporary school infrastructures for
education.

Thank you for your time. The Korea would like to yield their time to the chair.
“The delegate of Pakistan would like to raise a Motion for a 10-minute moderated
caucus, with maximum 2-minute speaking time, on the topic India's migrant labour
crisis and its relation to the rise of poverty poverty (1 min, 30 seconds)’’:

The Delegate of Pakistan would like to thank the Chair for their recognition,

Honourable Chairs and fellow delegates:

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an innumerable number of deaths, loss of


economic growth and rising unemployment rates.

India’s middle class has very likely shrunk by a third due to its handling of both phase
1 and phase 2 of COVID.

Now more than ever, migrant workers need greater economic and social protections.
The number of poor people in India, below the poverty line, is estimated to have
increased by 7.5 crores. This accounts for nearly 60% of the global increase in
poverty.

The GDP of India went down by approximately 8% in 2020 and the unemployment in
2020 rose to 7%. In May, the unemployment rate has gone up to more than 14%. The
rise in Unemployment is directly proportionate to the poverty of the Migrants.

The pandemic has brought suffering and made the migrant labourers vulnerable to
different forms of economic and health issues. A welfare policy that supports
migrants' well-being is a need of the hour for the growth of the country.

Thank you, Pakistan yields its time to any points of information
