This is an advanced committee; it is suggested that delegates who have previous experience compete in this committee.
The International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB) is one of the intergovernmental autonomous organizations under the UN focusing on the sustainable and peaceful uses of genetic engineering and biotechnology for the benefit of mankind. The ICGEB plays a major role in promoting advanced, experimental research and developing information related to biosafety and bioethics. As biotechnology is becoming more and more necessary to treat infectious diseases and improve crops and industrial biofuels, it is essential to develop the best and most humane way to improve quality of life and protect lives around the world. Delegates are encouraged to utilize diplomacy and collaboration to determine what actions must be taken to treat public health crises and encourage humane development of biotechnology.
