SUBMITTED BY: Norway
CO-SUBMITTERS: Latvia , Netherlands, Liberia

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY,


Highlighting the importance of improving working conditions for female labourers across
the globe, as our world shifts to a more industrialised one, with an estimated 50 million
people worldwide who are victims of slavery, according to Anti-Slavery International, thus
implementing measures to protect female labourers are crucial in an ever-industrialising
world,
Remembering the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ( UDHR ) and the United Nation’s
( UN ) commitment to them to ensure global equality and prosperity fall all nations and their
respective citizens,
Conscious of the underrepresentation of women in parliament globally as of 2023 only 27%
of political leadership roles are fulfilled by women,
Gravely concerned with the pernicious cultural practices including but not limited to child
marriage which consequently ends their education,
Noting that each nation is sovereign has its own cultural norms and values concerning
women which must be respected and evaluated,
Emphasising the necessity of a unified front against inequality in all forms as it is one the
core mandates of the UN,
Whereas the peoples of the United Nations have in the Charter reaffirmed their faith in
fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person and in the equal rights of
men and women and have determined to promote social progress and better standards of life in
larger freedom,

1. Calls for all Member States to sign and sanction the UN Women commitment in order
to fight for women’s rights and equality between genders;

2. Calls upon Member States that have withheld from signing the UN Women
commitment to consider action upon women’s rights and equality;

3. Further calls for Member States to increase open seats for women in both education
and workforce by;
a. buildings and opening schools, colleges, and universities in which women
are also able to participate in instead of focusing on single-gendered
schools,
b. creating availability in seats within workforce such as the military etc;

4. Requests that the belief of male-dominated and female-dominated jobs be lowered to


a point of extinction to prevent the thwarting of opportunities for women solely due to
their gender by;
a. producing children and adult shows and posters to promote the equality of
women to men,
b. exposing society to women in all work fields to society to reduce any
belief towards male-dominated or female-dominated fields and to allow
them to be only fields of work;

5. Encourages the creation of laws against marriages involving adolescents under


eighteen years of age, including;
a. the immediate effect on any coming or current marriages including
adolescents under eighteen, considering them null and void.
