This is a novice committee.
The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean is one of five regional commissions of the United Nations. The commission is composed of 52 member states and encompasses two-thirds of the world’s population, making ESCAP the most comprehensive of the five regional commissions. It was established in 1947 as the Economic Commission for Asia and the Far East (ECAFE) to assist in post-war economic reconstruction, but was renamed in 1974. The committee aims to address some of the greatest challenges facing the region through results-oriented projects, technical assistance, and capacity building to member states. ESCAP is working towards its 2030 agenda, which focuses on sustainable development. global partnership, and ensuring social and economic equality. Delegates must collaborate to discuss how to achieve these sustainable development goals amidst persisting conflicts like the Taiwanese conflict.
